National Instruments SHC68-C68-S Cable

The SHC68-C68-S (Part Numbers: 186380-02 and 186380-0R5) is a cable which connects National Instruments motion controllers, such as NI-63xx from the X Series and NI-62xx from the M Series, to NI MID-76xx, MCA-7724, or UMI-7774 and UMI-7772 devices or SSR cable adapters. The “SHC” part of the product refers to the fact that it is a shielded cable assembly with a VHDCI connector. The next part, “68-C68” indicates the cable has a compact VHDCI connector on the accessory end. Finally, the “S” at the end of the name means the cable is specifically for switching and motion applications. This cable can only be used with DAQ products when recommended. The device has 30 AWG signal and +5 V wires, an outer diameter of 0.380 in., and a bend radius of 4.6 in.

The difference between the two part numbers for the SHC68-C68-S is the length. Part number 186380-02 is 2 m and part number 186380-0R5 is 0.5 m. One end of the NI SHC68-C68-S Cable is a 68-pin VHDCI offset male connector that connects to NI motion controllers, while at the other end is a 68-pin VHDCI offset male connector that connects to universal motion interfaces. The NI SHC68-68-S Cable has twisted pairs and is an affordable solution for customized breakout fixtures with a VHDCI connector.
