Wiring

Proper grounding and wiring of all electrical equipment is important to help ensure the
optimum operation of the IXrouter3 and to provide additional electrical noise protection
for your application.
The IXrouter3 comes with a female 4-pin plug-in connector with screw connection (type:
Weidmuller BL 5.08/04/180 SN BK BX). The optimal wire diameter is 1.5mm² (16AWG -
12AWG).
