Honeywell 51308112-100 200 Meter Long PLC Cable

The 51308112-100 from Honeywell is a 200-meter communication cable designed for Local Control Network and PLC interconnections within TDC and PKS systems. This shielded industrial cable provides stable data transmission across extended physical distances in process control architectures.

Signal Transmission and Shielding

This communication cable maintains signal integrity for distributed network architectures and HART loop protocols. Its conductor separation and shielding construction preserve channel isolation and prevent induced electrical noise across long-distance cable runs.

Specifications

Field Installation Guidelines

1. Route cable in dedicated trays to minimize EMI exposure.
2. Maintain shield grounding at a single point to avoid ground loops.
3. Avoid sharp bends; maintain minimum bend radius per Honeywell installation standards.
4. Verify connector seating and strain relief before energizing.
5. Label both ends with model and length for maintenance traceability.
6. Keep separation from high-voltage power lines to reduce induced noise.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can the 51308112-100 cable be field-terminated?

A: Yes, while factory-terminated options exist, field termination is possible using Honeywell-specified connectors and shielding practices.

Q: What is the maximum supported run length?

A: This model is supplied at a length of 200 m, and longer runs require repeaters or additional network extenders.

Q: Is the cable interchangeable with non-Honeywell coax or twisted pair?

A: No, substitution may cause impedance mismatch or communication errors.
