This specialized I/O interface cable connects Series 90-30 PLC modules to field devices. It provides reliable signal transmission between the controller and remote I/O racks. The cable features shielded conductors for superior noise immunity in industrial environments. Its robust construction withstands repeated flexing and movement during installation.
Cable Construction and Physical Specifications
The cable consists of 15 individually insulated conductors within a durable jacket. Each conductor uses stranded copper wire for excellent flexibility and conductivity. An overall foil shield provides protection against electromagnetic interference. The cable jacket is PVC material with oil and chemical resistance.

Conductor Identification and Color Coding
The cable uses a standardized color scheme for easy field identification. Each conductor carries a unique color for straightforward termination. A white marker band appears every 15 cm for length measurement. The foil shield includes an uncovered drain wire for termination purposes.
Connector Details and Contact Configuration
The IC693CBL315/B features precision-machined contacts with gold plating. Each connector includes all 15 pins for full signal connectivity. The connectors provide positive locking with thumbscrews at both ends. This arrangement ensures stable connections even under vibration conditions.
Signal Integrity and Transmission Performance
The cable maintains impedance of 120 ohms for reliable data transmission. Its low capacitance design minimizes signal distortion over short distances. The foil shield reduces noise pickup from adjacent power cables. These characteristics ensure error-free communication in demanding settings.
Application Scenarios and System Integration
This cable primarily connects Series 90-30 remote I/O racks to the CPU rack. It also links specialized I/O modules with their terminal blocks. You can use the cable in both horizontal and vertical cable trays. Its 3-meter length accommodates most equipment spacing configurations.
Handling and Storage Recommendations
You should avoid bending the cable beyond its minimum radius specification. Coil the cable loosely during storage to prevent conductor damage. Keep both end connectors covered when not connected. Regular inspection helps detect jacket wear or connector damage early.
