Installation & Notes
Because this is a 100 m length, plan the run to avoid exceeding the I/O-Link distance budget — verify total drop length against Honeywell Series 8 I/O-Link specifications. Maintain the 100 Ω impedance by preserving pair twist and avoiding undue stretching. Route away from high-voltage trays. The gray PVC jacket is suited for indoor/cabinet use; for outdoor or conduit-exposed runs, confirm the PVC rating against local environmental conditions. Engage M12 connectors fully and torque per Honeywell guidelines. De-energize the I/O-Link segment before connecting or disconnecting.
