BNC Connectors for CE Compliance
Exposed BNC connectors can receive static charges, which can enter the board’s circuitry, resulting in
ESD damage. To comply with CE standards, BNC connectors must be shielded from high-voltage sources
such as static charges.
Some points:
• C able and connector requirements are stated in the product’s Declaration of Conformity.
These are typically special coaxial cables with insulated end-connectors and rubber O-rings,
for example, cable kit p/n 418-0800.
• P VC dust caps (p/n CN-96) must cover all unused BNC connectors.
• P roperly installed connectors and dust caps will cover the entire surface of the BNC,
i.e., no BNC metal will be exposed.
