5.4 Camera Cabling Requirements
5.4.1 Ethernet Cables
Use high-quality Ethernet cables. To avoid EMI, the cables must be shielded. Use of category 6 or
category 7 cables with S/STP shielding is strongly recommended. As a general rule, applications
with longer cables or applications in harsh EMI conditions require higher category cables.
Either a straight-through (patch) or a cross-over Ethernet cable can be used to connect the camera
directly to a GigE network adapter in a PC or to a GigE network switch.
Close proximity to strong magnetic fields should be avoided.
5.4.2 Standard Power and I/O Cable
If camera
is not connected
to a PLC device
If camera
is connected
to a PLC device
If power is supplied at 12 VDC:
-> Use standard power and I/O cable
If power is supplied at 24 VDC:
-> Use PLC power and I/O cable
PLC power and I/O cable recommended
Cable
must be shielded
must be at least a 26 AWG cable.
Twisted pair wire
Maximum recommended cable length: 10 m
Cable end: Hirose micro plug (part number HR10A-7P-6S) or equivalent
Pin assignment (see Figure 38 on page 59)
If you are supplying power to the camera via Power over Ethernet, the cable will not be used to supply power to
the camera, but still can be used to connect to the I/O lines.
