2.6.2 Screening the communication cables used
In order to ensure that signals are transmitted without noise so as to comply
with EMC B requirements, the communication cables used must be
screened.
Use screened cables or screen the cables yourself with a ferrite ring such as:
• Würth STAR-RING snap-together ferrite, split ferrite core, 30 x 20 x 20
mm, for cables with a diameter of 8 mm
• Würth STAR-GAP snap-together ferrite, split ferrite core, 31.5 x 35 x
28.3 mm, for cables with a diameter of 13 mm
Make sure to properly place the ferrite ring on the communication cable
at a location close to the connection side (max. distance of 20 cm from
the external device plug) on the touch display.
