Appendix
A.1 Overview of the standards relevant for network installation
Standards for application-neutral communication cable networks in the industrial environment
Standard
ISO/IEC 24702
EN 50173-2
EN 50173-3
For the industry application itself further standards are required that describe the constraints
for this application.
Cabling standards for industrial networks and their sphere
Standard
IEC 61918
IEC61784-5-x
Fieldbus-specific aspects are described in separate, subordinate standards
1)
The guideline "PROFINET Cabling and Interconnection Technology Guideline"
The PROFIBUS User Organization, among other things, has compiled the guideline
"PROFINET Cabling and Interconnection Technology" that serves as input for the IEC 61918
and the IEC 61784, among other things, and also refers to it.
The technical benchmarks for cables and the connection technology (electrical and optical)
for PROFINET networks are described. These are intended to help new manufacturers with
making products that are PROFINET compliant.
The guideline can be downloaded in English under:
