The type of cable entry depends on the device version ordered.
Always route connecting cables downwards so that moisture cannot penetrate the connection
compartment.
If necessary, create a drip loop or use a weather protection cover.

Reference cable type
The reference cable type for APL segments is fieldbus cable type A, MAU type 1 and 3 (specified in
IEC 61158-2). This cable meets the requirements for intrinsically safe applications according to IEC
TS 60079-47 and can also be used in non-intrinsically safe applications.
Cable type A
Cable capacitance 45 to 200 nF/km
Loop resistance 15 to 150 Ω/km
Cable inductance 0.4 to 1 mH/km
Further details are provided in the Ethernet-APL Engineering Guideline
(https://www.ethernet-apl.org).
Overvoltage protection
The overvoltage protection can optionally be ordered as a "Mounted accessory" via the product
structure
Devices without optional overvoltage protection
The equipment fulfills the requirements of the product standard IEC / DIN EN 61326-1 (Table 2
Industrial Environment).
