A.2.2 Custom assembled connecting cables
As an alternative to the preassembled standard cables, you can assemble cables individually
for many configurations. A reader connector with screw terminals is available for self-
assembly (see the relevant system manual). Cables and reader connectors can be ordered
using the TIA Selection Tool or the SIMATIC Ident Configuration Guide.
