Passive network components - Glass fiber-optic cables

Passive network components - Glass fiberoptic cables

Overview

Used for the optical Industrial Ethernet and PROFIBUS networks Rugged design for industrial applications indoors and outdoors Halogen-free design for installation inside buildings Trailing cable for the special application of forced motion control High immunity to noise thanks to insensitivity to electro-magnetic fields Available preassembled Extensive approvals (UL)

Benefits

Easy routing with Pre-assembled cables No grounding problems Very light fiber-optic cable Tap-proof due to lack of radiation from the cable Silicon-free; therefore suitable for use in the automotive industry (e.g. on paint shop conveyors)

Application
Marine duplex fiber-optic cable SIENOPYR Halogen-free, non-crush, flame-retardant, marine-approved fiber-optic cable for permanent

installation on ships and on offshore platforms indoors and on open deck. Sold by the meter. Fiber-optic indoor cable Halogen-free fiber-optic cable, non-crush, flame-retardant, for installation inside buildings (e.g. in production halls and in building automation). Supplied in fixed lengths, pre-assembled with four BFOC connectors. Fiber-optic standard cable Fiber-optic cables for the following application areas indoors and outdoors

For routing aboveground For installation inside buildings.

Sold by the meter and in fixed lengths, pre-assembled with four BFOC connectors or four SC connectors. Fiber-optic trailing cable Fiber-optic cables for the special application of forced motion control, such as in continuously moving machine parts (in trailing cables) indoors and outdoors. Two cable versions are available for this application:

FO Trailing Cable; Cable for high mechanical stress, PUR outer sheath, no UL approval FO Trailing Cable GP (general purpose); Cable for low mechanical stress, PVC outer sheath, with UL approval

Sold by the meter and in fixed lengths, pre-assembled with four BFOC connectors or four SC connectors. Fiber-optic outdoor cable Waterproof cable (lengthwise and sideways) for use outdoors with non-metallic protection against rodents for laying into the ground. Sold by the meter and in fixed lengths, pre-assembled with four BFOC connectors or four SC connectors.

Note: Special tools and specially trained personnel are required for pre-assembling glass fiber-optic cables

Application examples

Use of pre-assembled fiber-optic cables with SC connectors (1000 Mbit/s)

Use of pre-assembled fiber-optic cables with BFOC connectors (100 Mbit/s)

Design

The following cable types are available in two variants, 50/125 m and 62.5/125 m:

100Base FX; 62.5/125 m fiber, 3,000 m 100Base FX; 50/125 m fiber, 3,000 m 1000Base SX; 50/125 m fiber, 750 m 1000Base LX; 50/125 m fiber, 2,000 m

In the respective applications, the maximum cable lengths must be taken into account. Passive connection of different fiber types is not permissible. The use of 50 m fiber is recommended for future installations due to the greater range of gigabit Ethernet. Use of the 62.5 m fiber is only recommended for existing network installations.
