Back to the issue of shield grounding for a moment...
The Apollo/UPSAT/Garmin AT install manual wiring diagram for the MX20 interface with a WX500 shows both the Tx and Rx cables having their shields terminated at each end with connection to the chassis of each unit. The WX500 install manual specifies that the shields be terminated at one end only:
Tx grounded at the WX500 chassis and Rx grounded at the MX20 chassis. I haven't the foggiest notion of which one is the more elegant solution but I'm inclined to ground at both ends as per the MX20 manual since I do not expect to build ground loops into my system. ):
So here's the real issue, I want to break these two cables(2 conductor 22ga twisted pair with braided shield) with inline connectors for ease of installation.
I haven't been able to locate suitable connectors which will do the job and maintain the integrity of the shield. Any suggestions for a connector part #/manufacturer?
