Replaced by the 3530_1 - Optical Rotary Encoder ISC3004, the same encoder but with a Phidget encoder cable connector.
This is a small ball bearing construction, rotary encoder without index that goes up to 3000 rpm.
The encoder comes with a 1 meter cable and 2 mounting screws.
This quadrature encoder can be read by an encoder interface. To attach the shaft of this encoder to a motor or some other device, you can use a shaft coupler. See the Connection & Compatibility tab for details.

The easiest way to connect your encoder to a Phidgets encoder interface is to use a Phidgets encoder cable, cut it to the desired length and solder the encoder wires to the encoder cable as follows:

| Black | Black |
| White | White |
| Green | Brown |
Alternatively, you could buy the male connector (Molex part 50-57-9405), and crimp it onto the end of the cable, if you have the appropriate tools.
