Industrial Cabling Technology
A fault-free connection on-site in 60 seconds with FastConnect
Problems often occur on-site when laying the cabling for
industrial plants: When stripping the cable, assembling the
plug-in connector, or if cables are connected incorrectly.
The quick-assembly system FastConnect from Siemens is
the right system:
• For the installation of industry-standard network
structures within the shortest possible time, without
specialist knowledge, with perfectly matched
components
• Minimal time spent connecting terminals
• To avoid installation errors
• For easy assembly on-site and reduced overall costs-
during the lifespan of the system
FastConnect consists of a cable, connector and tool and
can be used for Industrial Ethernet/PROFINET and
PROFIBUS.
The advantages add up with FastConnect
With the FastConnect (FC) system for Industrial
Ethernet, structured cabling from the office environ-
ment becomes industry-standard for installation in
production halls:
An integrated system of FC plug-in connectors and
an extensive range of FC cables with appropriate
UL approvals for Industrial Ethernet/PROFINET and
PROFIBUS
Error avoidance through the use of color coding,
preset tools, and clearly specified materials
Dependable screen contacts and strain relief as
well as good EMC shielding for copper cabling
The use of standard-compliant connection technol-
ogy for Industrial Ethernet/PROFINET and PROFIBUS
Complies with environmental conditions according
to IEC 61850-3
