PROFIBUS PA cable specifications
Cable type
Twin-core cables are recommended for connecting the device to the fieldbus. Following
IEC 61158-2 (MBP), four different cable types (A, B, C, D) can be used with the fieldbus, only two
of which (cable types A and B) are shielded.
• Cable types A or B are particularly preferable for new installations. Only these types have cable
shielding that guarantees adequate protection from electromagnetic interference and thus the
most reliable data transfer. In the case of type B multi-pair cables, it is permissible to operate
multiple fieldbuses with the same degree of protection on one cable. No other circuits are
permissible in the same cable.
• Practical experience has shown that cable types C and D should not be used due to the lack of
shielding, since the freedom from interference generally does not meet the requirements
described in the standard.
The electrical data of the fieldbus cable have not been specified but determine important
characteristics of the design of the fieldbus, such as distances bridged, number of users,
electromagnetic compatibility, etc.
Suitable fieldbus cables from various manufacturers for non-hazardous areas are listed below:
• Siemens: 6XV1 830-5BH10
• Belden: 3076F
• Kerpen: CeL-PE/OSCR/PVC/FRLA FB-02YS(ST)YFL
Maximum overall cable length
The maximum network expansion depends on the type of protection and the cable specifications.
The overall cable length combines the length of the main cable and the length of all spurs
>1 m (>3.28 ft).
Note the following points:
• The maximum permissible overall cable length depends on the cable type used:
• If repeaters are used, the maximum permissible cable length is doubled.
A maximum of three repeaters are permitted between user and master.
