Plan a ControlNet Coax Media System        

2-15

Using IP67 Media

Sealed media components are ControlNet taps and connectors suitable 
for use in harsh environments. The sealed tap contained in the 
ControlNet IP67 Tap and Connector Installation Kit (cat. no. 
1786-TCT2BD1) protects the BNC connector, which is not water-tight.

The following figure shows a sample installation featuring IP67-rated 
sealed media components.

Application Considerations

The following guidelines coincide with the guidelines for “the 
installation of electrical equipment to minimize electrical noise inputs 
to controllers from external sources” in IEEE standard 518-1982. When 
planning your cable system, take into account certain installation 
considerations, depending on your application. 

IMPORTANT

Refer to the ControlNet IP67 tap and Connector Kit 
Installation Instructions (supplied with the kit), 
publication 1786-IN017A-EN-P, for more information 
on IP67 installations.
