4.3.2 Cable parameters
The bus cable is specified in EN 50170 part 8-2 as "Cable Type A", and should comply with the parameters in the table below.
Cable Type B, which is also described in EN 50170, is outdated and should no longer be used.
Example of cable for Profibus DP: Siemens, Order number: 6XV1830-0EH10

Core cross-section
*) The cable cross-sections used should be compatible with the mechanical specifications of the bus interface connector.
4.3.3 Maximum length of bus segment
The cable parameters specified for standard Type A bus cables result in the maximum length of each bus segment for the
respective data transfer rate shown in table *.
Data transfer rate (kbit/s)
Max. segment length (m)
<Notes of wiring>
1) Add a ferrite core
Insert a ferrite core with the bus cable.
Insert a ferrite core with the input/output shielded wires, and wind the shielded wires by one turn around
the ferrite core.
2) To guarantee correct operation, connect to Functional Earth from screw of D-sub female connector.
