8.1 Connecting the Electrical RS 485 Bus Cables
For the RS 485 bus cable, use only shielded twisted pair cables with an outer diameter of 7.5 to 10 mm.
Appendix B lists the electrical parameters of cable types recommended in compliance with the standard.
Make sure that you connect the same cores (green or red) uniformly to all bus terminals of a cable section,
either terminal A or terminal B.
The following are recommended for field bus networks:
Terminal A: Green core
Terminal B: Red core
Do not connect any RS 485 LAN cables that are laid completely or partly outside buildings without first
protecting the network using a suitable surge voltage protector. Otherwise, lightning strikes in the area can
destroy the PROFIBUS ILM or other network components.
Connect the RS 485 LAN cable to the terminal block as shown in Figure 16.
The terminals marked A or B are electrically identical.

Figure 16: Connecting the PROFIBUS Cables
Fold back the braided shield over the outer jacket of the LAN cable. This provides you with a sufficiently large
cable diameter to clamp the cable.
Screw the threaded cable inlet so that if IP65 is required, the cable connection is watertight. If this is required,
PROFIBUS cables with a round cross-section and an outer diameter of 7.5 to 10 mm must be connected.
Tighten the threaded cable inlet with a torque of approx. 2.5 to 3 Nm so that the collar of the cable inlet is
sealed against the casing of the PROFIBUS ILM. When the cable is connected, the union nut of the cable inlet
must be tightened so that the cable can no longer be pulled out. When tightening the nut, make sure that the
cable does not turn with it.
If a union nut must be released again, the threaded cable inlet should be tightened again afterwards to make
sure that this is still flush against the casing.
