Installation of bus cable

INFORMATION

• According to IEC 802.3, the maximum cable length for 10/100 MBaud Ethernet (10BaseT/100BaseT), e.g. between 2 ECC-DFC fieldbus controllers, is 100 m.
• VLAN tag-prioritized Ethernet frames with the frame identification 8892_hex are used for the real-time data exchange with PROFINET IO. This requires switched networks. The switches must support prioritization. Hubs are not permitted. Data transmission takes place using the full duplex process with 100 MBit. Detailed information on cabling can be found in the "PROFINET Installation Guideline" publication that was issued by the PROFINET user organization.

• Shielding and routing bus cables
• Ethernet cable with suitable RJ45 connector
