Cables and Accessories

Input and Output Cables, BNC Boxes, and Screw Terminal Adapters

Custom cable assembly services are available for connecting
Alligator Technologies' filters, amplifiers, and signal conditioners to any A/D board and to any system.

Ordering Recommendations

  • Connect filter and amplifier output directly to A/D input.
  • Keep cable lengths as short as possible.
  • Use BNC boxes for input connections only.

BNC Boxes

Alligator Technologies recommends using BNC boxes for inputs only, and not for outputs, to avoid picking up stray capacitance and maintaining signal integrity.
