Technical note on bus cableschainflex® bus cables have been specially developed and tested for continuously moving use in e-chains®. Depending on
the outer jacket material and the design principle, the bus cables are designed for different mechanical requirements
and media resistance.
The cables have been electrically designed in such a way that, on the one hand, the electrical requirements of the respective bus specification are reliably met
and, on the other, that greater value is placed on a high degree of EMC reliability. It is also ensured that the
electrical values remain stable over the long term in spite of permanent movement.
The overall quality of transmission in a complete bus communication system, however, is not solely
dependent on the cable used. What is also essential is that all components (electronic parts,
connecting system and cable) are precisely matched to each other and that the maximum transmission rates, which are dependent on the respective system,
are adhered to with regard to the data transmission rates needed. A cable is thus not solely responsible for the reliable transmission
of signals.
igus® advises that when you are designing your bus system to take all these factors into account and, with extensive tests, helps
you to ensure the process reliability of your system from the very beginning.
