The VIPA 972-0DP01 is a robust and reliable PROFIBUS connector designed for facilitating the connection of PROFIBUS participants to the bus line. This 90-degree connector is engineered to support high-speed data transmission rates of up to 12MBit/s, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial communication requirements.

Crafted with a full metal construction, the VIPA 972-0DP01 ensures noise immunity and durability in harsh industrial environments. Its transparent cable slots allow for easy inspection of wiring, screen, and cable positioning, enhancing the installation process and maintenance checks.

One of the standout features of this connector is the integrated diagnostic LEDs that provide immediate visual status updates on bus activity, termination resistors, power supply, and bus status. This real-time monitoring capability simplifies troubleshooting and helps maintain system uptime.

The connector utilises IDC technology for quick and secure wire connections, eliminating the need for time-consuming soldering or crimping. Additionally, it comes with a captive single-screw-mounting system, ensuring that no parts are lost during installation.

For added convenience, the VIPA 972-0DP01 includes an integrated switchable termination resistor and a programming/diagnostic port, further streamlining the setup and diagnostic processes.

Compatible with both fixed and flexible wiring, the VIPA 972-0DP01 is versatile and can be used with various stranded wire types, including those specified by LAPP Art. No. 2170222, 2170822, and 2170322. Its design adheres to DIN 19245 and EN 50170 standards, and the sheathing is made from a PVC mixture that is flame-retardant in accordance with VDE 0472, part 804, Test procedure B (IEC 332.1).

The VIPA 972-0DP01 PROFIBUS connector is an essential component for professionals seeking a high-quality, easy-to-use solution for their industrial communication systems.
