Installation technology

The fieldbus plugs for PROFIBUS and CANopen^® combine the D-SUB connection typical of IP20 with the M12 connector that has long been the favorite for IP65 modules.

Thanks to various cable entries, the M12 fast connection plugs can be used in many versatile ways. The new, fully-molded housing offers the highest degree of mechanical protection at a comparatively low weight. This allows the products to be ideally put to use in applications subject to strong vibrations without endangering expensive modules.

The SPEEDCON M12 connection enables error-free locking with just one rotation. In this manner, ready-made components are installed very quickly.

We have designed fast connection plugs in different versions specifically for use in PROFIBUS systems. These enable you to connect incoming and outgoing bus lines quickly and conveniently. The product range includes fast connection plugs for every PROFIBUS application:

• 35° and 90° angled cable entry
• Axial cable entry
• Additional programming interface
• Integrated, switchable termination resistors

You can use the plugs for PROFIBUS cables with both solid and stranded copper wires. All versions already have an integrated termination resistor. A slide switch enables you to activate the termination resistor from the outside.

Stay flexible. Thanks to the universal plugs from the SUBCON range, you are not tied to one system. You even get a user-friendly connection for protocols developed in-house without the need for soldering and crimping.

Phoenix Contact offers versions with 9, 15 or 25 contacts for all commonly used interfaces, such as RS-232/RS-422/RS-485, TTY, and many more.

Minimal work. The PSM-STRIP-FC/PROFIB quick stripping tool can be used to assemble the Profibus cable. You can complete two tasks with a single tool:

• Strip cable and single wires and insert them into the plug.
• Close the plug housing cover – and you're done!

Practical decision. All tools and plugs for practical assembly are now readily available on site. You can find the complete range of tools in the PSM-HCS-KONFTOOL tool case. This means you are perfectly equipped for every task:

• Strip the fibers: stripping pliers, fiber strippers, aramide yarn scissors
• Push on the individual plug components and screw them in place
• Cleave and break the fibers at the front of the plug: fiber cleaving tool

This patented fiber cleaving tool dispenses with all time-consuming tasks such as crimping, bonding, and polishing.

Fiber optic cables round off the fiber optic range, providing you with a complete transmission system. Depending on the required range, you can choose between polymer fiber, HCS (hard clad silica) fiber or fiberglass technology.

Phoenix Contact offers specially developed cable variants for different application and ambient conditions:

• Pre-assembled fiber optic cables with freely selectable plug combinations
• Fiber optic cable by the meter
• Pre-assembled patch cable for fast integration of fiber optic devices into existing fiber optic networks

We offer patch cables in lengths of one, two, and five meters as single mode and multimode fiberglass options.

Connector:

You can self-assemble a plug set for HCS and polymer fibers quickly and easily on site. Depending on which connection your devices use, you can choose between FSMA, B-FOC (ST^®), SCRJ and SC duplex plug types.
