The Siemens 6XV1870-2B Ethernet Cable is a high-quality, industrial-grade flexible cable designed to meet the rigorous demands of modern industrial environments. This cable is specifically engineered for use with occasionally moved machine parts, ensuring reliable and consistent performance even in dynamic applications.

Crafted with a robust construction, the 6XV1870-2B features four shielded cores, wrapped in an overlapped aluminium-clad foil and further protected by a braided screen of tin-plated copper wires. This design provides excellent protection against electromagnetic interference, maintaining signal integrity and reducing the risk of data loss or corruption.

The cable is compliant with Category 5e standards, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial communication tasks, including those that require fast and secure data transmission. With an impedance of 100 ohms for frequencies ranging from 1 MHz to 100 MHz, it ensures compatibility with a variety of networking equipment and protocols.

The 6XV1870-2B is designed with flexibility in mind, featuring a minimum bending radius of 32.5 mm for single bends and 52 mm for multiple bends. This flexibility, combined with a maximum tensile load of 150 N, makes it an ideal choice for installations that require a cable to navigate tight spaces or complex routes.

For environments where chemical exposure is a concern, the cable offers conditional resistance to mineral oil, grease, and water, enhancing its durability and lifespan. Additionally, it is UV radiation resistant, ensuring that it can withstand exposure to sunlight without degrading over time.

This Ethernet cable is not halogen-free but is silicon-free, catering to specific industrial requirements. It is available in lengths up to 2500 metres, with a minimum ordering quantity of 20 metres, allowing for customisation based on the specific needs of your project.

Overall, the Siemens 6XV1870-2B Ethernet Cable is a reliable and durable solution for industrial networking applications, providing the performance and resilience needed to maintain a secure and efficient industrial communication network.

What type of applications is this Ethernet cable suitable for?

The Siemens Ethernet Cable is designed for use with occasionally moved machine parts, making it suitable for flexible applications within industrial environments.

Is this cable halogen-free?

No, the 6XV1870-2B Ethernet Cable is not halogen-free.

Can this cable be used in outdoor installations?

The cable is designed for industrial use and has a flame-resistant sheath according to UL 1685 (CSA FT 4), but it is not specifically rated for outdoor use. It's best to check the specific environmental requirements of your application.

What is the maximum operating voltage for this cable?

The maximum operating voltage for the cable is 100 volts RMS value.

What is the bending radius for this Ethernet cable?

The minimum permissible bending radius for a single bend is 32.5 mm, and for multiple bends, it is 52 mm.

Is this cable resistant to oils and greases?

The cable has conditional resistance to mineral oil and grease, meaning it can withstand exposure under certain conditions as specified by IEC 60811-404.

What is the temperature range for the operation of this cable?

The cable can operate within an ambient temperature range of -25 to +75 degrees Celsius.

What is the significance of the cable being categorised as 'Cat5e'?

Cat5e categorisation indicates that the cable meets the Category 5 enhanced specifications, which supports frequencies up to 100 MHz and is suitable for Gigabit Ethernet and other standard network protocols.

Does this cable come with connectors?

The 6XV1870-2B Ethernet Cable does not come with connectors; it is sold by the meter and can be cut to length and terminated according to the needs of the specific installation.

How is the cable shielded?

The cable is shielded with an overlapped aluminum-clad foil and sheathed in a braided screen of tin-plated copper wires to protect against electromagnetic interference.
