This unit
The Keithley CAB-1284CC-2 is a shielded IEEE 1284 Type C-C cable engineered for bi-directional parallel data transfer between test instruments and peripherals. Mini-Centronics connectors on both ends provide secure, repeatable connections. Comprehensive shielding minimizes EMI/RFI interference, ensuring signal integrity in demanding laboratory and production environments.
Technical Specifications
Interface Standard: IEEE 1284
Connector Type: Mini-Centronics (Type C) on both ends
Conductor Gauge: 28 AWG
Shielding: Yes - reduces EMI/RFI coupling
Connector Design: Fully molded connectors with thumbscrews for mechanical security
Key Features
Bi-directional data transfer support via ECP (Extended Capabilities Port) and EPP (Enhanced Parallel Port) modes
Fully molded connectors for durability and consistent mating
Thumbscrew-secured connections prevent accidental disconnection
Shielded construction protects against external electromagnetic noise
Typical Applications The CAB-1284CC-2 connects test equipment requiring parallel data communication over IEEE 1284 interfaces. Common applications include instrument-to-controller links in data acquisition systems, digital multimeters, source measure units, and legacy peripherals such as printers and scanners that operate in ECP or EPP modes.
Compatibility & Integration This cable is compatible with any IEEE 1284–compliant instrument or device featuring Mini-Centronics connectors. Keithley test and measurement systems - including DAQ platforms, precision multimeters, and SMUs - employ this interface for high-speed, bidirectional control and data acquisition. Installation requires only connection to matching Mini-Centronics ports; no additional adapters or configuration is needed.
