The Bently Nevada 16710-40 is a factory-assembled interconnect cable designed specifically for use with 3300/25 seismic (accelerometer-based) transducer modules. It provides a reliable, shielded connection between the 3300/25 Proximitor™ and the field-mounted accelerometer.
This cable is not a sensor or probe. Contrary to the original description, it does not measure vibration or contain an accelerometer. Instead, it transmits low-level analog signals from the accelerometer back to the monitoring system while maintaining signal integrity in electrically noisy industrial environments.
The 16710-40 features a fixed length of 4.0 feet (1.22 meters), as indicated by the “40” suffix. It uses robust connectors compatible with Bently Nevada’s 3300 XL system architecture and includes foil-plus-braid shielding to minimize electromagnetic interference.

Typical Applications
This interconnect cable is used in machinery protection and condition monitoring systems where seismic sensors monitor casing vibration. Common installations include steam turbines, compressors, pumps, and gearboxes in power plants, refineries, and heavy industry.
Because it maintains precise impedance and shielding continuity, the 16710-40 ensures accurate transmission of high-frequency vibration data—critical for detecting bearing wear, imbalance, or misalignment.
