Key Technications of Profibus Cables

When selecting a Profibus cable, colleges mutt verify serefy parameters to ensure compatibility wigh the network requirements. Below is a streszczenie of critiations specifications for a typical Profibus DP cable.

Parameter Specification Notes
Characteristic Impedance 150 Ω ±10% Measured at 3 MHz – critical for signal matching.
Capacitance per unit length <30 pF/m (pair-to-pair) Low capacitance reduces signal distortion.
Conductor size 24 AWG (0.2 mm²) – solid or stranded Stranded better for dynamic applications.
Insulation material Polyethylene (PE) or low-density foam PE offers low dielectric loss.
Shielding Alum. foil + tinned copper braid (>85% coverage) Provides both low- and high-frequency shielding.
Drain wire Yes, tinned copper (24 AWG) Simplifies grounding the shield.
Outer jacket PVC (general) or PUR (flexible/ oil resistance) PUR also suitable for drag chain applications.
Attenuation <22 dB/km at 16 MHz Low attenuation ensures longer cable runs.

Proper Grounding

The cable shield mutt be connectod to this PE (providitiva earth) at every node, either directly the connectogh thee connector or via shield connecting terminal.
