Chapter 5 Connect the Kinetix 5500 Drive System
Ethernet Cable Connections
This procedure assumes you have your Logix 5000 controller and Kinetix 5500
drive modules mounted and are ready to connect the network cables.
The EtherNet/IPâ„¢ network is connected by using the PORT 1 and PORT 2
connectors. Refer to page 62
to locate the Ethernet connectors on your
Kinetix 5500 drive. Refer to Figure 61
to locate the connectors on your
Logix 5000 controller.
Shielded Ethernet cable is required and available in several standard lengths.
Ethernet cable lengths connecting drive-to-drive, drive-to-controller, or drive-
to-switch must not exceed 100 m (328 ft).Refer to the Kinetix Motion
Accessories Specifications Technical Data, publication KNX-TD004
, for more
information.

These Logix 5000 controllers accept linear, ring (DLR), and star network
configurations. Refer to Typical Communication Configurations
on page 23
for linear, ring, and star configuration examples.

IMPORTANT When using an external Ethernet switch for routing traffic between the
controller and the drive, switches with IEEE-1588 time synchronization
capabilities (boundary or transparent clock) must be used to make sure
switch delays are compensated.
