What Is the Maximum Cable Length for an Encoder?

As a general rule of thumb, our single-ended output encoders work for cables up to 10 feet in length assuming they are not in an electrically noisy environment. For applications longer than 10 feet, a differential output encoder and shielded cable is recommended. If you have questions about a specific application, please reach out to Technical Support.
