Use Preterminated Cables
Using preterminated cable assemblies saves you the effort of stripping and
wiring connectors to the cable ends. Because pre-terminated cables are
normally factory-tested, using them also helps reduce wiring errors.
About thick cable
You can order thick cable in multiple lengths with mini connectors at each end.
Single-ended versions are also available for simplified connection to
DeviceBox or open-style connections. Thick cable that is 6m (20ft) or shorter
can also be used as drop lines.
TIP
Additional cable lengths and configurations, other than
those shown, are available from Rockwell Automation.
