Using Cables Of Different Types Together - Mitsubishi Electric MELSEC Q Series User Manual

4.5.3
This section describes use of cables of different types.
(1) Trunk line
Cables of different types cannot be used together.
(2) Branch line
Cable types can be different only if the cables are used on different branches.
When a module with cable (e.g. CL1Y2-T1D2S) is used, however, cables of different types can be used together
by shortening the length of the dedicated flat cable to 20cm or less. (Refer to the figures below.)
