Wiring of CC-Link IE Controller Network

This section describes the wiring when CC-Link IE Controller Network is used.

Optical fiber cable

The following describes the wiring of the optical fiber cable when the RJ71GP21(S)-SX is used.
Wiring methods
The following describes connection and disconnection of the optical fiber cable.
■Connecting the cable
1.
Push the optical fiber cable connector into the RJ71GP21(S)-SX until it clicks. Pay attention to the connector's direction.
2.
Lightly pull it to check that it is securely connected.
■Disconnecting the cable
1.
Press the connector hook down and unplug the optical fiber cable.
■Precautions
• The RJ71GP21(S)-SX has IN connector and OUT connector. Connect the IN connector of own station to OUT connector of
another station and OUT connector of own station to IN connector of another station.
• The bend radius of the optical fiber cable is limited. For details, check the specifications of the cable to be used.
• Place the optical fiber cable in a duct or clamp them. If not, dangling cable may swing or inadvertently be pulled, resulting in
damage to the module or cables or malfunction due to poor contact.
• When handling an optical fiber cable, do not touch the optical fiber core of the cable-side or module-side connector, and
protect it from dirt or dust. If oil from your hand, dirt or dust is attached to the core, it can increase transmission loss, arising
a problem in data link.
• Hold the connector part when connecting or disconnecting the optical fiber cable. Pulling the cable connected to the module
may result in malfunction or damage to the module or cable.
• A tracking cable to connect the redundant function modules is a cable with the same specifications as the optical fiber cable
to connect the RJ71GP21(S)-SX. Do not connect the RJ71GP21(S)-SX and the redundant function module by mistake.
