4m IEEE-488 C24MF to C24MF HPIB/GPIB Bus Cable

Overview

Designed for optimum efficiency and durability, this cable ensures flawless data transmission and is manufactured according the IEEE-488 specification. It features male and female piggy-backed 24-pin Centronics style connections to allow daisy-chaining to another instrument or printing device. Each cable is double-shielded and fully molded to reduce EMI/RFI interference and achieve maximum signal integrity.

The GP-IB bus was invented by Hewlett-Packard at the end of the 1960's. The intention was to create a reliable bus system especially designed for connecting computers and instruments. This networked system has all features that are required to create a measurement system.

Remote control of instruments is one aspect of these features, but there are other more important features including data handshake for reliable operation and real-time response capability. The original bus system, designed by Hewlett-Packard, was called HP-IB, short for Hewlett Packard Interface Bus.
