VARIOFACE output module, with plug-in bases for 8 miniature relays, 1 changeover contact each, for 24 V DC (without relays)
Controller-specific system cabling
Our controller-specific system cabling was specially developed to allow quick, error-free connection to the I/O modules of a wide range of controllers. With the simple plug-in front adapters, system cables, and termination boards, especially the new VARIOFACE Front Connect generation, you can make time savings of up to 90% and space savings of up to 60% in comparison with conventional solutions. VARIOFACE system cabling is available for all common I/O systems.

VARIOFACE system cabling with plug-in components
Overview of controller-specific system cabling
The VARIOFACE controller-specific system cabling consists of the following components:
- Front adapters: the front adapter marshals the signals, eliminating the need for complex wiring with single-core wires. Simply plug the adapter into the correct input/output card of the controller. Solutions are available for the following controller manufacturers: ABB, Allen Bradley, Emerson, Honeywell, GE Fanuc, Phoenix Contact, Mitsubishi Electric, OMRON, Schneider Electric, Siemens, Yokogawa
- System cables: the signals are transmitted from the controller to the module via a pre-assembled system cable. Different versions are available, depending on length, number of positions, and shielding.
- Termination boards: the termination board transmits the control and field signals. You also benefit from our varied product range in this case. Termination boards are available in a wide range of connection technologies, overall widths, and different functions.
VARIOFACE Front Connect
The new generation of ultra-compact termination boards is the perfect addition between the remote I/O system and the field level.An innovative design ensures fast and error-free wiring as well as space savings in the control cabinet.VARIOFACE Front Connect ideally supports decentral peripheral devices with high flexibility and a narrow design.

Conventional cabling with single-core wires
Conventional wiring with single-core wires
Wiring the I/O devices with single-core wires is very time-consuming and prone to errors.
Features:
- Time-consuming, because many work steps are necessary – such as cutting the wires to length, stripping, marking, crimping, and laying them
- Each single-core wire connection is a possible error source
- The arrangement of the cable bundles is confusing
- Arduous troubleshooting
- Maximum flexibility with single-core wires
VARIOFACE system cabling
VARIOFACE system cabling
The system cabling is a harmonized wiring concept that consists of a front adapter, system cable, and module.
Features:
- Plug-in components allow fast and error-free connection
- Time savings of 90% compared to conventional wiring with single-core wires
