Quick Detail

Description

The 16710-99 Interconnect Cable is a high-performance industrial-grade signal transmission cable engineered by Bently Nevada, a global leader in machinery condition monitoring and protection solutions. Designed specifically for seamless integration with Bently Nevada’s 3300 series proximity probes and 3500 monitoring systems, this 16710-99 Interconnect Cable delivers reliable, low-noise data transmission in the harshest industrial environments, making it an indispensable component for critical vibration, displacement, and position monitoring applications across power generation, oil & gas, petrochemical, and heavy manufacturing sectors. Manufactured in the USA with original factory-sealed packaging, the 16710-99 Interconnect Cable adheres to Bently Nevada’s stringent quality standards, ensuring consistent signal integrity, long-term durability, and full compatibility with legacy and new-generation monitoring equipment.

At the core of the 16710-99 Interconnect Cable’s performance is its optimized electrical design, featuring a 24 AWG tinned copper conductor that minimizes signal attenuation and distortion even over its extended 4.0-meter total length. With a low capacitance of 55 pF/m (typical at 1 kHz) and a fixed 45 Ω characteristic impedance, this Interconnect Cable perfectly matches the electrical parameters of paired proximity probes and signal conditioners, eliminating signal reflection and preserving the high-precision data required for early fault detection in rotating machinery. The 16710-99 Interconnect Cable is equipped with double-layer shielding—aluminum foil combined with 85% coverage braided copper mesh—delivering ≥80 dB shielding effectiveness at 1 GHz, which robustly resists electromagnetic interference (EMI) from variable frequency drives, high-voltage cables, and industrial motors that commonly disrupt signal transmission in crowded plant environments.

Applications

The 16710-99 Interconnect Cable is primarily designed for connecting Bently Nevada 3300 series proximity probes to 3500 monitoring systems in power generation facilities, enabling reliable transmission of vibration and displacement data from steam and gas turbines, generators, and boiler feed pumps. Its superior EMI shielding and wide temperature tolerance ensure stable operation in the high-electrical-noise and high-heat environments typical of power plants, supporting predictive maintenance programs that reduce unplanned downtime and extend equipment lifespan.

This Interconnect Cable is ideally suited for deployment in oil and gas refineries and offshore drilling platforms, where it links proximity probes installed on compressors, pumps, and rotating separators to signal conditioners. Its oil-resistant PVC jacket and multiple agency approvals make it compatible with the hazardous and corrosive conditions of these sectors, while its 4.0-meter length provides sufficient reach for routing between equipment located in dispersed or confined areas of the plant.

The 16710-99 Interconnect Cable serves as a cost-effective retrofit solution for upgrading legacy machinery condition monitoring systems in heavy manufacturing plants, including steel mills, cement factories, and automotive production lines. Its compatibility with 0.2–1.5 mm² field wiring and flexible bend radius allow seamless integration with existing probe and conditioner setups, eliminating the need for costly system overhauls while enhancing signal integrity and measurement accuracy for critical production equipment.

Specifications

Competitive Advantage

1.Superior Anti-Interference Performance for High-Precision Data Transmission

The 16710-99 Interconnect Cable is equipped with double-layer shielding (aluminum foil + 85% braided copper mesh) that delivers ≥80 dB shielding effectiveness at 1 GHz, outperforming standard single-shielded cables in blocking EMI from industrial equipment. Combined with its low capacitance and matched characteristic impedance, this design minimizes signal attenuation and distortion, ensuring that high-precision vibration and displacement data from proximity probes is transmitted to monitoring systems without loss— a critical advantage for early fault detection in rotating machinery.

2.Rugged Construction for Extreme Industrial Environments

Featuring a flame-retardant UL94 V-0 rated PVC jacket and 24 AWG tinned copper conductor, the 16710-99 Interconnect Cable offers exceptional resistance to oil, chemicals, and temperature extremes (-45°C to +130°C operating). Unlike conventional cables that degrade quickly in harsh conditions, this model maintains structural and electrical integrity in refineries, offshore platforms, and high-heat power plants, reducing replacement frequency and lifecycle maintenance costs.

3.Flexible Installation and Global Compliance for Versatile Deployment

The 16710-99 Interconnect Cable’s 0 mm unthreaded length, 990 mm overall case length, and flexible bend radius (10× static/15× dynamic) enable easy routing in tight spaces such as turbine casings and control cabinets, eliminating the need for costly structural modifications during installation. Additionally, its multiple global agency approvals ensure compliance with international safety standards, supporting seamless deployment across global markets without the need for regional customization.
