- Excellent materials and durability: built from selected high-quality materials for durability and safety. The cable is designed to resist breakage and deformation, providing a long service life and a comfortable handling experience. - Widely compatible with lab equipment: suitable for laboratory test equipment and other instruments requiring an 8-bit parallel interface. Enables multiple communication instruments to be connected for control by a computer and/or other instruments. - Clear performance and standards: supports bidirectional digital 8-bit parallel data transfer between devices. Expands between devices in linear, star or circular patterns while complying with IEEE 488 and ANSI/IEEE 488.2 standards. - Multi-purpose and flexible design: added to the bus as an extension cable. The control board cable is usually used to remove the HPIB or GPIB bus. Both ends use CN24M and CN24F connectors with screw locks for secure connections. - Practical use scenarios: - Laboratory automation: connect multiple instruments such as a computer, oscilloscope, and multimeter to automate test sequences via the GPIB bus. - Flexible test-bench expansion: extend the GPIB bus across a lab bench in linear, star, or circular topologies to place instruments within reach while maintaining bidirectional 8-bit parallel communication. - Bus maintenance and configuration: use as an extension or replacement cable to manage and reconfigure the HPIB/GPIB bus on a control board as needed.
