Guidelines for Routing the Network Cables
To ensure maximum performance of your network, follow these guidelines when
routing the network cables. Route the cables before installing Xanbus-enabled
devices.
•
Route the cables away from sharp edges that might damage the insulation.
Avoid sharp bends in the cable—no less than a 100 mm radius.
•
Allow for some slack in the cable tension.
•
Keep the alignment of wire pairs inside the sheath as straight as possible.
•
Allow separation between data and power cables (data cables should only
cross a power cable at right angles).
•
Do not staple the cable with metal cable staples. Use the appropriate hardware
fasteners to avoid damage to the cable.
Connecting Network Cable between Inverters
This procedure assumes only two inverters are installed. However, there can be up
to ten inverters wired in this configuration.
To provide communication between multiple inverters:
1. Remove the communication ports covers from all inverters. See Figure 3-12.
2. Connect the network cable to an empty RJ45 port in Inverter #1.
3. Pass the cable through the cable clamp on the communication ports cover of
Inverter #1.
4. Pass the cable between Inverter #1 and Inverter #2, securing the cable
appropriately.
5. Pass the cable through the cable clamp on the communication ports cover of
Inverter #2.

WARNING: Shock hazard
Do not route the network cables in the same conduit or panel as the AC and DC power
cabling.
CAUTION: Unpredictable device behavior
Do not connect one end of the network to the other to make a ring or loop.
