Ethernet Connection
The connection to the Ethernet bus is made via an d-coded M12 female socket.
The cable should be CAT5 or CAT5e cable.
Cabling
Connection via hub or switch
Connect the PLC's network interface to the hub using a standard Ethernet cable, and connect the hub, again using a standard Ethernet cable, to the Fieldbus Box.
Connection via a switch is done in the same way.
Direct connection between PLC and IL230x-B90x
To connect the PLC directly to the Fieldbus Box, you must use an Ethernet cable in which the pairs of cores have been crossed (a crossover cable).
