Efficient industrial communication relies on stable physical network connections that can withstand harsh operating conditions. The Omron XS6W-5PUR8SS300CM-G Industrial Ethernet Patch Cable is designed for Industrial Ethernet systems requiring dependable data transmission, durable cable construction, and effective protection against electromagnetic interference. Its 3-meter length offers flexibility for connecting automation equipment located within the same machine or between nearby control panels.
Technical Description
The Omron XS6W-5PUR8SS300CM-G Industrial Ethernet Patch Cable is manufactured as a Category 5 Industrial Ethernet cable equipped with straight RJ45 connectors at both ends. It utilizes an S/FTP shielding structure that combines individually shielded twisted pairs with an overall braided shield to improve signal integrity in electrically noisy environments. The cable is protected by a green polyurethane (PUR) jacket that provides mechanical durability suitable for industrial installations. The overall cable length is 3 meters with an outside diameter of approximately 6.0 mm.
Operating Principle
Industrial Ethernet communication is transmitted through balanced twisted-pair conductors that reduce signal distortion while maintaining reliable data exchange between connected devices. The S/FTP shielding structure minimizes electromagnetic interference generated by surrounding electrical equipment, helping maintain communication stability throughout automation systems.
Factory-installed RJ45 connectors provide consistent electrical performance while eliminating the need for field assembly, reducing installation time and helping maintain standardized network connections.
Typical Applications
- PLC communication networks
