8.4.3 Ethernet
In order that the electromagnetic interference (EMI) would not affect on the data
transfer the installation of the cable should be done as close as possible to the
body of the machine.
It is recommended to wire the cable under the shelter of mechanical hits if the
installation environment makes it possible.
The cable must be installed as far away from the other cables with high power as
possible.
The maximum length of a working connection is 100 meters.
• In all Epec 5050 control units the Ethernet connections can be found in grey AMP 35
pin connector (connector1).
• This Ethernet connection is based on 10BASE-T connection where two twisted pairs
are used.
• This AMP 35 connector is not a standard connecting format and to get the best
operation reliability the following issues should be considered in circuitry and
installation; type of the used cable, connecting the cable and the installation method.
Cable
If the installation environment demands for a cable that takes the heat and low temperature, the
minimum demand for the cable is under 20 m with connection Outdoor UTP Cat5E 4Pairs
(Water Blocking / UV Resistant).
For longer connections it is recommended to use cable Outdoor UTP Cat6 4Pairs (Water
blocking / UV Resistant), similar to it or better.

• (STP = Shielded Twisted Pair)
• (UTP= Unshielded Twisted Pair)
