Application
ENG_133004.XML
The fiber-optic cable (FOC) is used for the transmission of signals in very extensive plants and where there are significant potential differences within a plant. The light beam is guided by total reflection at the transition from core to cladding which has a lower refractive index than the core.
The FastConnect fiber-optic (FC FO) system enables fast on-site assembly of glass fiber-optic cables with the right lengths to suit the respective application.

Steps for assembly of Industrial Ethernet fiber-optic cables with Industrial Ethernet FastConnect
Design
ENG_133005.XML
Fiber-optic cables with glass core (62.5/200/230) are offered for the FastConnect fiber-optic cable system:
- FC glass fiber-optic cable;
duplex cable for indoor and outdoor fiber-optic networks
The fiber structure corresponds to that of the PCF. This allows simple assembly on site.

Approvals
UL listing (safety standard) for network cables is especially necessary for the American and Canadian markets. The requirements for the appropriate approvals depend on where the cable is routed within the building. This applies to all cables which have to be routed from a machine to a remote control cabinet and are positioned on cable racks secured on the building. These cables are identified by the suffix "GP" (general purpose) in the product name and have the corresponding UL approvals.
