SIPLUS extreme RAIL BusAdapter

• Are plugged onto the device with SIMATIC BusAdapter interface and can be equipped with an equipment labeling plate for identification of the equipment.
• BusAdapters with a copper interface can be used on all devices with a SIPLUS extreme RAIL BusAdapter interface.
• BusAdapter with FOC interface can be used on selected devices with SIMATIC BusAdapter interface (e.g. ET 200SP interface module with High Feature function class or above, CPU 1512SP (F), etc.)
• Versions with two PN copper interfaces (RJ45 or FastConnect (FC)):
  • BA 2xRJ45 with 2 RJ45 sockets
  • BA 2xFC with 2 FastConnect connections

Assembly

FastConnect (FC)

Using the FastConnect stripping tool, the outer sheath and braided shielding can be quickly and conveniently removed from Industrial Ethernet FastConnect cables in one simple operation. The detached PN bus cable is connected directly to the FC connector by means of the FastConnect terminals – in a similar way to the PROFIBUS connector, tried and tested in millions of applications. It is then only necessary to close the cover and lock it with the slider (no tools required).

RJ45

In principle, all industry standard RJ45 Ethernet connectors can be used here. If the PN cable is to be assembled on site, the FastConnect stripping tool can be also be used here in connection with the "Industrial Ethernet FastConnect RJ45 Plug 180" connector.
