BELDEN 3079A, 2-PAIR 22 AWG SHIELDED PROFIBUS CABLE

This cable is purpose-built to maintain strict impedance requirements and protect sensitive fieldbus data from the severe electromagnetic interference (EMI) typical of industrial manufacturing:

Optimized PROFIBUS Construction: It consists of one twisted pair of 22 AWG solid bare copper conductors designed to meet the precise electrical characteristics of the PROFIBUS protocol. The cable is color-coded (Red/Green) according to PROFIBUS standards to ensure correct field termination.

Advanced Shielding for Noise Immunity: To prevent data errors in electrically noisy environments, it utilizes a dual-shielding system: a Beldfoil® (aluminum/polyester) shield combined with a tinned copper braid shield. This combination provides superior coverage against both high-frequency interference and low-frequency noise.

Durable and Reliable: The conductors are insulated with foamed polyethylene (FPE) for low attenuation, and the entire assembly is encased in a violet PVC outer jacket. The violet color serves as the universal visual identifier for PROFIBUS networks, simplifying identification in dense cable trays.

Industrial Hardiness: It is built to withstand the rigors of industrial installations, offering excellent mechanical stability and protection against environmental factors, ensuring that critical automation control signals remain stable over long distances.
