Design of the The bus cable is a double-shielded coaxial cable. Unlike the normal
727-0 Bus Cable Ethernet bus cable for office and laboratory applications (Yellow Cable), it is a
three-wire conductor. The second shield also acts as a vapor barrier, making the
cable suitable for buried installation.
In addition to the solid copper inner conductor and a multilayer outer signaling
cable, that must not be connected to the structural ground, there is another
(outer) shield. The construction of its outer conductor and, above all, its grounded
shield render the cable impervious to high frequencies and immune to outside
interference.

10 BASE-T 10 BASE-T is a network with star topology standardized in IEEE 802.3 and, like
Industrial Ethernet, uses the CSMA/CD access method.
The transmission medium is a 100-ohm twisted-pair cable. The maximum length

of the repeater-data terminal connection, known as the link segment, is 100 m.
The data terminal equipment is connected to the network via RJ45 connectors.
Industrial Twisted Industrial Twisted Pair is based on the 10 BASE-T network standard. The
Pair and various network components have been optimized for industrial use. The
10 BASE-T transmission medium is a 2x2 or 4x2-wire S/STP cable with a characteristic
impedance of 100 ohms.
For Industrial Twisted Pair the RJ45 connector has been replaced by the sub-D
connector system, which is mechanically more robust and less susceptible to
electromagnetic interference.

Design of the Fiber-Optic Cable (Glass)

Date: 01.09.99
Information
Knowledgeandfor
Training Center
Automation
Principle of Operation The fiber-optic cable is a dielectric waveguide with a core of low-attenuation,
optically transparent material.
It is used for transmitting signals by means of electromagnetic waves at optical

frequencies. Even when the cable is bent, the beam of light is carried along by
complete reflection at the transition between the kernel and the surrounding
material, which has a lower index of refraction than the core. The fiber-optic cable
is enclosed in a protective coating.
Because of its greater bandwidth and superior light injection, the 62.5 micrometer
fiber type is recommended.
This fiber is also recommended for the FDDI.
In Industrial Ethernet fiber-optic cables are used:
between two active star couplers and/or

between an active star coupler and an optical transceiver and/or
between two optical transceivers
There are two different types of fiber-optic cables:
Standard glass fiber-optic cable for indoor and outdoor applications

Trailing glass fiber-optic cable for indoor and outdoor applications and
applications subject to movement

Automation
Design of the TPTR The industrial twisted-pair plug-in transcelver TPTR enables data terminals with
an AUI interface to be connected to the industrial twisted-pair network.
The transceiver has two interfaces: an AUI interface for connection of a data
terminal and an ITP interface for connection of the industrial twisted-pair cable.
The AUI interface is a 15-pin sub-D plug connector and the ITP interface a 15-pin
sub-D socket connector.
The transceiver has six LEDs for diagnostics.
Operation of the The small dimensions of the TPTR enable it to be plugged directly into
TPTR the AUI interface of a SIMATIC NET communications processor. It increases the
mounting depth of the data terminal by approx. 40mm.
The transceiver can also be used with a 727-1 drop cable.
It receives its power supply via the AUI interface.

Triaxial Cable An Industrial Ethernet segment consists of an Ethernet coaxial cable with an
additional shield (known as a triaxial cable)
Segment length: A segment can be up to 500 m long and may contain up to 100
max. 500 m transceivers.
Length of If a segment is made up of sections of cable from different batches pieced

Subsections together, the length of the subsections is subject to the following formula:
L = (2 n + 1) x 23.4 m
where n = 0, 1, 2, . . .
This results in subsections with the lengths:
23.4 m; 70.2 m; 1 1 7.0 m; . . .
50-Ohm Terminator Each segment is terminated at both ends with a terminating resistor (50-ohm
terminator).

In highly critical applications, data security has absolute priority. In order to

maintain operation in the event of a failure of the transmission medium or a
concentrator in such situations an alternative line is frequently provided in a
separate cable duct. The interface cards and devices with redundancy function
enable automatic switchover between the main line and the standby.
Single-Redundancy A cross-connection within the bus structure results in a ring. This

Ring constitutes a "redundant link".
Advantage of this structure: If one star coupler connection or one star coupler
fails, the redundant link provides access to all the other star couplers.

The link modules provide several connection facilities in one unit. The OLMs
(optical link modules) have both electrical and optical ports. The ELMs (electrical
link modules) are a more inexpensive version with only electrical ports. The link
modules can therefore be used for configuring both line topologies (with OLMs or
ELMs via fiber-optic or industrial twisted-pair (ITP) cables) and redundant ring
topologies (with OLMs via fiber-optic ports only).

Application OSMs are used in conjunction with an ORM for creating redundant optical
Industrial Ethernet ring structures with switching technology and fast medium
redundancy.
These OSM/ORM rings have a transmission speed of 100 Mbps.
One ORM is required for each optical ring. Up to 50 OSMs can be used.
Both data terminals and network segments can be connected to the ITP ports
of the OSMs.
Design
Module casing for mounting on standard rail
2 x 100 Base FX ports with 2 BFOC socket connectors each for
connection of glass-fiber cables (62.5/125 µm)
4 x 9-pin sub-D socket connectors for connection of 10 Base T ITP cables
1 x 9-pin sub-D socket connector as a standby port for OSM
synchronization when redundant optical rings are linked.
5-pin terminal block with digital signal contact and redundant 24V DC
power supply
Power loss 10 W
500 mA current consumption at rated voltage 24 V DC
Degree of protection IP20
Lengths
Max. 3000 m fiber-optic cable between two OSMs
Max. 100 m ITP cable

OSM Operation
The OSM creates an address table for each port in self-learning

mode.
The table contains the Ethernet (MAC) addresses of the
connected data terminals
Based on the source and destination addresses in the data
packet, the OSM dynamically establishes connections between
the relevant ports for the duration of the data exchange
(switching) (you do not have to configure these connections!!)
The OSM can make several connections at the same time, e.g. a
connection between the two 100 Mbit/s fiber-optic ports and two
connections between pairs of ITP ports
Data packets to unknown stations are delivered to all ports.
At the same time, the OSM learns the addresses and enters
them in the address table (no manual configuring required)

Load isolation: Full duplex:

Load isolation Load isolation keeps local data traffic local because the switch only passes out
data intended for nodes in other subnets. This is done by filtering the data
according to the MAC address.
Another advantage of this system is that an error in one subnet cannot spread to
the other subnets.
FDX Advantage:
Because no collisions occur in FDX, data throughput is increased to twice
the rated transmission speed for the network, that is 20 Mbps for standard
Ethernet and 200 Mbps for Fast Ethernet.
Network coverage is extended as far as the performance limits of the
trasmission and receiving components used will allow.
This aspect is especially beneficial when using fiber-optic cable.
It is not necessary to use full duplex everywhere in the network.
You can also operate only a few connections between certain nodes in FDX
mode, for example the connection between a server and a hub/switch or
connections between switches.

ORM - Optical Redundancy Manager (2)
Operation
The ORM controls redundancy in a ring:

Both ends of the Ethernet bus lead into the ORM
In trouble-free operation these ends remain open
In the event of a fault, the ORM connects the two ends
The ORM sends test frames into the ring, and these are
received at the opposite ORM port
The ring is regarded as fault-free as long as the required
number of test frames are received in a defined time slice
A fault is recognized in the ring if too few test frames are
received in the time slice
Network reconfiguration in less than 0.3 sec
