Cabling solution for AIDA/PROFINET
FreeCon cabling components
PROFINET – The basis
The wiring components for copper and bre-optic cables are
designed and tested for use in harsh industrial environments.
In the PROFINET guidelines the interfaces to be used are
clearly dened so as to ensure interoperability between
systems. For PROFINET this is guaranteed through the
manufacturer's declaration. Comprehensive protection
against electromagnetic interference is achieved through the
use of high-quality shielding of both cables and connection
components. Signicant system reserves are offered through
the quad-star stranding of the cables and their wire cross-
section of AWG 22. Minimal signal propagation time
differences resulting from the cable structure guarantee
stable real-time transmission, for applications such as
PROFINET IRT. At the same time, the cables offer high crush
resistance for reliable installation in industrial applications.
The cabling components are also easy to handle in the
eld. This means that the plug-in connectors for copper and
bre-optic cables can all be assembled on site. This reduces
installation times, eliminates errors and simplies main-
tenance.
Based on PROFINET technology, Weidmüller offers cabling
and connection components for the industrial environment.
This ensures compatibility between different systems
and guarantees fast data communication in real time. The
FreeCon junction boxes also provide you an extremely exible
installation system for robotic cabling and other industrial
applications.
