For example, assume you require a 30-foot cable. You intend to operate your modem at 64.0 kbps. After looking at Table B-4, you determine that the maximum capacitance for the cable is 900 pF. According to the formula above, divide 900 pF by 30 feet. The result is 30 pF per foot:

900 pF

= 30 pF/ft

30 ft

Motorola recommends you use Motorola cables to attach your 326X modem(s) to DTE(s). Use Table B-5to select cable(s) for your application.

To use non-Motorola cables, Table B-6provides examples of vendor cable wire length versus DTE rates for 326X stand-alone units. NOTE: The part numbers specified in Table B-6are not for complete cables, but for the wires that are available with the correct capacitance to support the higher rates of the 326X Modem.

NOTE: Motorola DB-25 Cables have a conductor capacitance of 11 pF/ft and a shield capacitance of 20 pF/ft for a total capacitance of 31 pF/ft. For example, operating at 19.2 kbps, a 50-ft length of cable multiplied by a total capacitance of 31 pF/ft yields a maximum allowable cable capacitance of 1550 pF, which is acceptable in accordance with Table B-4.
