IEEE-1284 Requirements
The great majority of new parallel Printers, Scanners and Multi-Function products use Bi-Directinal interfaces and thus require the more advanced IEEE-1284 compliant cables.
Here are the basic requirements of this new standard:
1.All cables are twisted pair 2.Signal and ground return characteristic unbalanced impedance: 62 +/- 6 ohms.
3.Wire-to-wire crosstalk no greater than 10%
4.Cable requires a minimum of 85% optical braid coverage over foil.
5.Raw cable must be marked IEEE Std 1284-1994 Compliant
Standard cable lengths are available in 10 ft., 20 ft. and 30 ft. from some manufacturers. Since this cable has such good performance there is no need to be limited to a 6 ft. cable assembly.
