ETHERLINE® PN Cat. 6A Y FD FC
Ethernet cable; Cable chain, Flexible; PROFINET® application: Type C; Cat.6A; SF/UTP; PVC; green
Benefits
- The "Fast Connect" design, including inner sheath and cross separator, significantly reduces the cable assembly time, by eliminating the time-consuming removal of the pair screening. It also provides undiminished screening of the core pairs.
- Additional protection against electromagnetic interference thanks to double overall screening made of aluminium-laminated foil and copper braided screening with a high degree of coverage (SF/UTP).
- Power over Ethernet-capable cable for simultaneous power and data supply of smaller network components with low energy requirements (e.g. IP cameras, wireless access points).
- UL/CSA certification according to technical data enables the product to be used in the North American market.
- Fast information exchange through Ethernet technology.
- Cat. 6A performance up to 10 Gbit/s.
- For transmission of analogue and digital signals in the frequency range up to 500 MHz.
- Available with robust PVC or abrasion-resistant PU outer sheath.
- Successfully tested for over 1 million bending cycles in cable chains.
Applications
- For highly flexible, continuously flexing use in moving machine parts and cable chains in the PROFINET network (type C), due to the extra-fine stranded conductor design.
- Also suitable for EtherCAT and EtherNet/IP applications.
- Can be used in dry, damp or wet environments.
- Suitable for many applications, depending on the sheath material.
