19 Cables and Connectors
19.1 ComPorts
The cables used with FMS connectors are not supplied with the SMT300Q. You can
order them separately from Sundance with part number SMT500-FMSxx, where xx is
the cable length in centimetres.
19.2 Buffered ComPort Cabling
Connecting between buffered ComPorts requires a 1 to 1 cable; the SMT502-Buffer
is the recommended cable assembly and can be purchased separately.

at the same time, so that crosstalk is not an issue. Each control signal has its own
ground:
