FAQ
Question : How can I reduce noise in my cable?
Answer : Cables are particularly susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI), especially in noisy environments or when running over long distances. EMI can significantly impact the performance of electrical and electronic systems.
To minimize noise, using a shielded cable is highly recommended.
- Braided shielding – Provides excellent protection against low-frequency interference.
- Foil shielding – More effective against high-frequency interference.
These shielding methods can be used individually or in combination, depending on the application and operating environment.
Besides shielding, twisted-pair wiring is another effective solution. Protocols like RS422 and RS485 utilize twisted pairs to cancel out common-mode noise, improving signal integrity.
While most CP standard off-the-shelf cables are unshielded, we offer customized cable solutions to meet your specific application needs. Contact us at support@connectiveperipherals.com to discuss your requirements—we're here to help!
Question : Does CP offer EEPROM customization in addition to hardware customization?
Answer : Yes! CP provides both hardware and EEPROM configuration customization based on customer requirements.
In addition to cable modifications such as:
- Custom lengths
- Cable type selection
- End connector changes
- Circuit modifications
CP also supports EEPROM customization, including:
- USB VID/PID customization (Note: Customers must ensure compatibility, as FTDI drivers do not support custom VID/PID values).
- Manufacturer name customization
- Product description customization
- Signal inversion settings
