for the NI PXI-2520, NI PXI-2521, NI PXI-2522, NI PXI-2523, and
NI PXI-2510
This guide describes how to connect and use the National Instruments 160-Pin DIN shielded
cable, which has a maximum voltage rating of 150 V, CAT I. Use this cable to connect the
NI PXI-2520/2521/2522/2523 (NI 252x) or NI PXI-2510 (NI 2510) switch modules to your
application.
Caution The protection provided by the 160-Pin DIN cable can be impaired if it is
used in a manner not described in this document.
The 160-Pin DIN cable for NI 252x and NI 2510 is available in three configurations:
• SH160DIN-4XDB50F-2A
• SH160DIN-160DIN-2A
• SH160DIN-BARE WIRE-2A

The cable connects a 160-Pin female DIN connector (DIN 160 connector) to the following:
• Four 50-pin female D-SUB connectors
• A second 160-Pin DIN connector
• Eight bundles, legs P1-P8, of unterminated, tinned, and stripped wires
The 160-Pin DIN connector provides connection to the NI 252x and NI 2510. The 50-pin female
D-SUB connectors, second 160-Pin DIN connector, and unterminated cables provide connection
to your application. Figures 5 and 6 show the pinouts for the 160-Pin DIN connectors and the
50-pin female D-SUB connectors.
