NBC-93E Industrial PROFINET / EtherCAT Shielded Cable

The NBC designation from Phoenix Contact covers pre-assembled and bulk network cables for industrial Ethernet. The product name here refers to a shielded four-pair or two-pair Ethernet cable suited to PROFINET and EtherCAT, with a copper braid and foil shielding to protect data transmission against electromagnetic interference. The outer sheath is typically PUR or PVC, selected for resistance to oil, abrasion and flexing, and the cables are offered with RJ45 or M12 D-coded connectors. Cat5e class transmission supports 100 Mbit/s Fast Ethernet used by PROFINET and EtherCAT. Fixed-installation and flexible variants exist for cable carriers. Typical applications include connecting controllers, I/O stations, drives and switches in machine building, automotive production and process plants.
