4.3 Wire the Ethernet channels
To meet the EC Directive for Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC), use a suitable shielded
or unshielded Cat5e, or higher-rated instrumentation cable to connect the meter. If your
1600 is powered by the PoE connection, in order to meet the requirements of NAMUR
NE-21, use shielded Cat5e cable.
The instrumentation cable should have an overall screen to cover all cores. Where
permissible, connect the overall screen to earth at the host end (360° bonded).
4.3.1
Wire an Ethernet network using the RJ45 ports
Prerequisites
When using a pre-terminated RJ45 cable, ensure there is no protective boot on the
connector, as a protective boot will not fit through the conduit. Alternatively, you can use
the RJ45 connector using a shielded-field termination connector.
4.3.1 Direct connection and star topology
Procedure
1. Feed the RJ45 cable through the conduit on the 1600 transmitter.
2. Connect the RJ45 cable into Channel A.
3. Anchor the cable to the module backplate using a cable tie.
