Detail
SCSI HPDB68 to HPCN MDR 68 Pin Cable
PCM-S-0778 is an HPCN68 male to HPDB68P male cable assembly designed to connect two different 68 pin high density connector interfaces.
The cable uses an HPCN68 / MDR68 male connector on one end and an HPDB68P male connector on the other. Both connectors use IDC termination and are secured with 2-56UNC screw locking hardware.
The assembly uses a 28AWG 34-pair UL20276 shielded cable with an approximately 9.0 mm outer diameter. The cable structure includes Mylar, aluminum-Mylar shielding, drain wire and braid, with a black PVC jacket. The 68 conductors are wired one-to-one from P1 to P2, with no crossover or reversal. The metal shells are connected to the cable braid for shield continuity.

Applications :
Data Acquisition Systems
Applicable to DAQ equipment using HPCN68 / MDR68 and HPDB68 type interfaces for multi-channel signal connections.
Industrial I/O
Can be used for industrial I/O equipment with matching HPCN68 and HPDB68P interfaces and the specified 1:1 signal mapping.
Machine Vision Equipment
Suitable for machine vision equipment requiring an HPCN68 to HPDB68P connection between different high-density interface formats.
SCSI Equipment
Used as a 68-pin interface cable for SCSI-related equipment where the equipment connector configuration and pin assignment match the assembly.
Industrial Automation Equipment
Suitable for industrial automation systems requiring a fixed high-density signal connection between an HPCN68 interface and an HPDB68P interface.
Measurement and Test Equipment
Can be applied to measurement or test equipment where the physical connector configuration, wiring and shielding requirements correspond to the cable assembly.

Key Features :
1. Screw Locking
Both connectors use 2-56UNC nickel-plated screws for secure mechanical retention during equipment connection.
2. UL20276 Shielded Cable
The assembly uses a 28AWG 34-pair UL20276 cable with an approximately Ø9.0 mm outer diameter and black PVC jacket.
3. IDC Termination
Both HPCN68 and HPDB68P connectors use IDC insulation-displacement termination for the specified cable assembly process.
4. Multi-Layer Shielding
The cable incorporates Mylar, aluminum-Mylar, drain wire and braid, with the metal shells of both connectors connected to the cable braid.
5. 1:1 Pin Assignment
All 68 conductors follow a straight-through 1:1 configuration, with corresponding P1 and P2 pin numbers connected without crossover or reversal.
6. 100% Electrical Testing
Each completed assembly undergoes 100% testing for open circuits, short circuits and miswiring, with insulation resistance and contact resistance also checked according to the specified requirements.
