Figure 1 I/O Companion Slot Cable Type TC-701
This type of Trusted TM I/O Companion Slot Cable is designed for use with analogue or digital input
modules and is suitable for connecting input signals from an internal FTA to the module.
The modules and FTAs are matched pairs for this cable:
• T8402 uses T8802
• T8432 uses T8832
• T8433 uses T8833 (non-standard connections on this module need the 60 channel cable).
The chassis end of the multi-core cable is fitted with a 96-way type ‘C’ connector housed in a
double-width hood. The other end of the cable is fitted with a 96-way type ‘R’ connector housed in a
single-width hood enabling the cable to be connected to an FTA.
The multi-core cable is stripped back 1.5m at both ends, then shrouded in nylon Rilgain sheathing.
The ends of the sheathing are heated or fitted with over sleeving to prevent fraying.
At both the chassis and remote end, a sheathed braid allows the connector hood to be wired to safety
earth. At the remote end, the multicore screen drain is wired to a green wire to allow connection to
screen earth.
