Shielded cables improve signal quality and reduce interference and radiation of electromag- netic fields. Thus Pepperl+Fuchs recommends to use shielded data cables (RS232, USB, Ehternet). To ensure optimum signal quality the shield must be connected and grounded permanently. The following 3 shielding concepts exist: 1.
Page 55
Which of these three concepts is used must be determined by the user on a case-to-case basis (best interference suppression and safety). Pepperl+Fuchs does not accept any responsibility for choosing the right shielding concept. The "Box-A10" accessory provides a contact spring so that you can easily connect the cable shield via a DIN mounting rail to earth.
