What is the difference bettween SHC68-68-EPM and SHC68-68-EP cables?

I have several DAQCard-6062E and SHC68-68-EP cables, and I usually connect DAQCard-6062E to accessories such as BNC-2120 by SHC68-68-EP.
Now I plan to buy some M-Series DAQs. It's said that M-Series DAQ should be connected by SHC68-68-EPM. But both of SHC68-68-EP and SHC68-68-EPM are terminated with a VHDCI 68-pin male connector at one end and a 68-pin female 0.050 series D-type connector at the other.
Can I connect M-series DAQ  to BNC-2120 by SHC68-68-EP? What is the difference bettween SHC68-68-EPM and SHC68-68-EP?
 
Thanks!

The SHC68-68-EP has at both sides the same connector(I think the "68-pin
female 0.050 series D-type connector")

Hi All-


Actually, the SHC68-68-EP is also terminated with a VHDCI connector.  The difference is that the SHC68-68-EPM provides enhanced shielding designed specifically for M Series.  The -EP cable will work, but for maximum accuracy the -EPM is recommended.

Hopefully this helps-
