GG Group's DeviceNetTM cables have been designed specifically for application in drag chains and are based on the requirements of the bus system developed by Allen Bradley (Rockwell Automation).

Thicker cables (2xAWG18+2xAWG15) normally serve as backbone (trunk cables). Connection of various industrial devices (e.g. PLCs, limit switches, etc.) to the backbone is in general by means of thinner cables (2xAWG24+2xAWG22), as drop cables.

However, thinner cables can also be used as supply cables but then shorter transmission distances will be achieved, with the same data rate.

As standard, all cables are supplied with the appropriate approvals for the North American markets.

GG Group's CAN bus cables are designed specifically for highly flexible applications in frequently moving machine parts and in drag chains, and combine optimal data transfer through low-capacitance insulation and reduced outer diameter with increased mechanical stress resistance and improved resistance to oil, UV radiation and microbes.

Moreover, the cables are halogen-free and flame-resistant and are supplied with the appropriate approvals for the North American markets.

All cables meet and even exceed the requirements of ISO 11898.

According to the transmission requirements, solutions from 10 Mbit/s up to 1 Gbit/s are available. For Ethernet-APLTM applications we recommend AWG18 either with conventional or easy-to-install fast-connect technology. Cables for installation in intrinsically safe circuits with the same transmission characteristics are preferably marked with a blue outer jacket.

In the near future typical signal and Ethernet Cables (100 Mbit/s and more) are substituted by SPE. Typically from AWG26 – AWG22 (AWG22 per PROFINET standard). Cables for torsional stress are available with 100 Mbit/s for at least 5 Mio cycles.

Hybrid cables for the new connector standards are available on request. They are going to be individually tailored according to each customer’s demands.

PROFIBUS (PrOcess Field BuS) is a fieldbus standard that is specified in EN 61158 and EN 61784 (formerly EN 50170) and supports a wide variety of applications in automated manufacturing.

GG Groups highly flexible PROFIBUS cables have been specifically designed for applications in frequently moving machine parts, in cable carriers or on robots and cable carts and provide trouble-free communication between devices from different manufacturers without the need of specific interface adapters.

These cables are suitable not only for PROFIBUS DP (Decentralized Peripherals) and PROFIBUS FMS (Fieldbus message Specifi cation) but also for FIP (Factory Instrumentation Protocol) applications and can optionally be supplied with an integrated power supply.

Furthermore, these products are flame-resistant and can also be supplied with the appropriate
approvals for the North American markets.
