Figure 48. Properly Terminated Signal
Figure 49. Improperly Terminated Signal
To minimize reflection, coaxial cable with matching characteristic impedance to the signal source should be
used. The other end of the cable should be terminated with the same value terminator or resistor. For the
commonly used cables, RG59 has 75Ω characteristic impedance, and RG58 has 50Ω characteristic impedance.
