(Connected to chassis ground
through connector shroud.
Internal Circuit
Note: Connect the cable shield to Pin 1 of the connector. For
compliance with European Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
directives, also connect the cable shield to the metal shroud of the
connector on both sides of the connection.. This connects the cable
shield to chassis ground through the connector shroud and bypasses
the R/C filter.
Important: For improved noise immunity in long distance
networks, an alternate wiring connection may be preferred to avoid
dc and low frequency ground loops. In such cases, connect the cable
shield directly to the local chassis ground (through connector shroud)
at only one point on a PROFIBUS DP network.
