Canatal Corporation Inc. have specified the following data with respect to interconnecting cables.

Interconnecting Cable Characteristics

The interconnecting cable may be composed of twisted or untwisted pair (flat cable) possessing the characteristics below. Conductor Size: The interconnecting cable shall be composed of two wires of a 24 AWG or larger conductor for solid or stranded copper wires, or for non-copper conductors with sufficient size to yield a DC wire resistance not to exceed 30 ohms per 1000 feet per conductor.

Mutual Pair Capacitance: The capacitance between one wire in the pair to the other wire shall not exceed 20 picofarads per foot and the value shall be reasonably uniform over the length of the cable.

Stray Capacitance: The capacitance between one wire in the cable to all others in the cable sheath, with all others connected to ground shall not exceed 40 picofarads per foot and shall be reasonably uniform over the length of the cable.

Pair-to-Pair Balanced Crosstalk: The balanced crosstalk from one pair of wire to any other pair in the same cable sheath shall have a minimum value of 40 decibels of attenuation measured at 150 kilohertz.

An interconnecting cable meeting these specifications will result in a transmission line with a nominal characteristic impedance in the order of 100 ohms to frequencies greater than 100 kilohertz and a DC series loop resistance not exceeding 240 ohms.
