10.5.17 X200, X201: PROFINET
In order to be able to connect the drive controllers to other PROFINET nodes, an integrated
switch with both X200 and X201 RJ-45 sockets is provided. The sockets are located on top of
the device. The associated pin assignment and color coding correspond to the EIA/TIA-T568B
standard.
Connect X200 or X201 with the IO controller and the remaining connection with the next drive
controller.

Tab. 133: X200 and X201 connection description
Cable requirements
A PROFINET network generally consists of symmetrical, shielded copper cables twisted in pairs
(shielded twisted pair, CAT 5e quality level).
Signals are transmitted according to the
method, i.e. with a transfer rate of
100 Mbps at a frequency of 125 MHz.
A maximum of 1440 bytes can be transferred per frame. The maximum cable length is 100 m.
PROFINET cables exist in different versions that are tailored to different application scenarios
and ambient conditions.
We recommend using the cables specified in the PROFINET installation guidelines. They are
adjusted for use in automation technology with regard to usage, resistance, EMC properties and
color coding.
There are type A, B and C cables, differentiated by installation type:
§
Type A
4-wire shielded copper cable for fixed installation
§
Type B
4-wire shielded copper cable for flexible installation
§
Type C
4-wire shielded copper cable for constant movements
Device addressing and fieldbus connection
Information for device addressing can be found in the chapter
.
Detailed information about the fieldbus connection can be found in the corresponding manual,
