Chapter 4 Communication Connections
When cutting cable segments, make them long enough to route them from one
AIC+ to the next, with sufficient slack to prevent strain on the connector. Allow
enough extra cable to prevent chafing and kinking in the cable.
Use these instructions for wiring the Belden #3106A or #9842 cable. (See Cable
Selection Guide on page 77 if you are using standard Allen-Bradley cables.)
