Troubleshooting & Common Issues
If signal integrity issues arise, check the SUB-D connector pins for damage or corrosion. Verify that the cable is not excessively bent or stressed, as this can degrade the shield. The PVC insulation withstands temperatures up to +60 °C, but exposure beyond that may cause degradation. For noise problems, ensure proper grounding of the shielded cable.
