Cables and wires
Belden 9907 or RG58
Antennas must be connected to the Eco Reader by using coaxial cables and BNC connectors. The
coaxial cable should be of type ‘Belden 9907’ or ‘RG58’.
The BNC should be properly fit to the coaxial cable, where the outer wire does not touch the inner
wire.
Ten wire braided shield data cable
Use a braided shield (like data cable) for communication with customer counting, external
multiplexer, or any other external board. Nedap Librix recommends using a “LIYCY” data cable with
wire dimensions of 0.25mm

.
“LIYCY” means:
LI = flexible cable
Y = PVC insulation
C = shield of braided copper wire
Y = PVC outside

Filters
If the antennas were supplied with ferrite filters, put 1x filter around the coaxial cable leaving the
antenna, and 1x filter around the optional customer counting data cable leaving the antenna. Make
sure to place the filter near the antenna. When using PG or MDF antennas, these filters can be
placed in the foot of the antenna.
