PROFINET Installation Guideline for Cabling and Assembly

Manuf.
instructions
PROFINET cable assembly work
PROFINET Insulation displacement technology usually consists of a
compatible system of connectors, cable and stripping tool. You shall
only use components that are part of the manufacturer's system in
order to avoid problems.
The stripping tools for different cable types are in some cases identical
in appearance. However, there are often differences in the knife
cartridge that is installed in the stripping tool. The knife cartridge must
be suited to the PROFINET cable/connector that is being used. Using
the incorrect cartridge can result in defective connection of the data
wires or screen.
Make sure that the shield is properly connected when mounting the
connector. Shield and signal wires shall not have any connection to
each other
Please close the connector carefully.Otherwise the wires can be
damaged and short circuits can occur.
Make sure to use only those PROFINET cables that have been
approved by the connector manufacturer for use with the relevant
connector. This applies in particular to the use of insulation
displacement technology. For IP65 applications make sure that the
cable diameter matches the connector housing. This is mandatory to
ensure correct sealing between connector and cable.
2.1.2 RJ45 insulation displacement technology
Read the instructions from the connector manufacturer. The
instructions provide valuable information on the connector design
which can vary from one manufacturer to another.
