Technical specifications for front connector modules
Note
Total current less than 4 A per byte
The infeed point of the positive potential of an external supply voltage can be connected to the
terminal module. The supply voltage is directed thereby through the connecting cable. Due to
the limited current carrying capacity of the connecting cable, the total current of 4 A/byte must
not be exceeded under any circumstances.
Note
Total current more than 4 A per byte
With additional connecting cables, total currents of more than 4 A are conducted to the module
from an external power supply. These additional connecting cables are connected to special
connection sockets on the front connectors.
