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.

The non-proprietary PROFINET standard allows for transmission rates of up to 100 Mbit/s. The exceptional feature of these cables lies in the use of an unchanging, continuous AWG22 cross-section, no matter if the indoor installation is fixed (Type A) or partly fl exible (Type B). The exception to the rule is the cable for applications in control cabinets (Cabinet Cables).

The standard versions as well as the cables with rodent protection are supplied in the easy-to-install fast-connect design. All cables, with the exception of the high-temperature version, are supplied with the appropriate UL approvals for the North American markets.
