8.3 Hybrid and sensor connection cables
General 
Con󹪝guration hybrid ca‐
ble
Two optical 󹪝bers and two twisted copper wires in one cable for 24VDC.
Single-mode optical 󹪝ber con󹪝gured at both ends with E2000 angle connec‐
tors. Multimode optical 󹪝ber con󹪝gured at both ends with SMA connectors.
For installations in Ex zones non-intrinsically-safe cables have to be spatially
separated from intrinsically-safe lines
Cable sheath Oil-resistant polyurethane
