The digital connections should be made with high-quality 75Ω screened cable. Suitable cables are available from Meridian. We do not recommend using audio cables, which do not have adequate shielding or the correct impedance, or cables intended for UHF applications, as these do not provide adequate shielding in the 1Ð30MHz region.
