I have a vendor built radio/efis harness that is composed almost entirely of shielded wire. Since receiving the harness I decided to add a new component that requires both ARINC and RS232 Serial signals.



Since there's no audio in the mix...



Is it acceptable to splice into shielded ARINC and/or RS232 Serial wires using standard aircraft quality wire? That means there would be no shield between splice to new widget.



Or should I try to match the shielded wire with the same; carrying through the shield, etc? 



A related question... Would it be a poor choice to intermix ARINC and Serial in the same shielded wire bundle? I don't know how sensitive either protocol is to noise. 



Thanks,

Jay
