Installation instructions

The installation cable is either supplied by the meter or with preassembled connectors. It can be used to connect a single data terminal or two active network components (OSM/ESM).

On the network component side, 9-pole metal Sub-D connectors are used, and on the device side, 15-pole connectors are used. The 15-pole connectors contain a special plug-in jumper which can be used by modules with integrated twisted pair transceiver to switch from AUI to twisted pair operation.

Preassembled cables are used to connect data terminals directly to an active network component or for cascading active network components.

The ITP cables can also be ordered by the meter for on site assembly. 9-pole and 15-pole ITP connectors for assembly without special tools are available for this purpose.

The maximum cable length of a laid ITP Standard Cable is 100 m if connected directly.

ITP cables are intended only for use inside buildings.

Notes:

You can order components supplementary to the SIMATIC NET cabling range from your local contact.
