Few would be foolish enough to consider employing an unknown driver without a track record to race an expensive rally car. The same could be said for using unbranded low quality cable on motion control devices.
While most of industry is quite aware of state-of-the-art motion control devices, there are those who pay little attention to the quality or pedigree of cables used to connect up this great equipment. Some OEM manufacturers offer guidelines and information to help the clients in their efforts, but this does not necessarily guarantee that the best-suited cables are used.
