Overview
•
Compact, rugged assembly case for PCF fiber-optic cables
•
Special versions for easy assembly of HP Simplex and BFOC
plugs on PCF fiber-optic cables
•
The quality of the assembly can be checked using the
enclosed microscope
■
Benefits
•
Easy installation of the unassembled cables in industrial
plants
•
Flexible assembly of connectors on PCF fiber-optic cables on
site (HP Simplex, BFOC connectors)
•
Mistakes are avoided with easy visual inspection of the
assembled connector on site using a microscope
•
PCF fiber-optic cables are easily repaired on site by installing
a new PCF cable
■
Application
SIMATIC NET PCF fiber-optic conductors are used to construct
optical indoor and outdoor PROFIBUS DP networks. They are
easy to assemble on site with 2 x 2 Simplex connectors or
2 x 2 BFOC connectors. The maximum cable length between
two DP devices is 300 m and between two OLMs 400 m.
PROFIBUS DP devices with integrated optical interface
(Simplex connection technology) include, for example, OBT,
CP 342-5 FO, CP 5613 FO, IM 153-2 FO, IM 467 FO.
