Install the Adapter Kit
Follow these steps when installing an adapter kit.
1. Verify that space is provided for the cables that must connect through the adapter.
•
The installation area must provide clearance for cable features that are greater than or
equal to the cable diameter.
Examples of cable features include: connectors, transitions from exposed wire to
insulation (for example, flying leads), exposed cable ground shields.
•
Provide sufficient area around the adapter so the M12 connectors. that require
multiple rotations, can be hand-tightened.
•
Network cables have a static or one-time bend radius of twelve times the cable
diameter.
2. Create a panel cutout 15.9 mm (0.62 in.) in diameter.
3. Install the bulkhead adapter kit in the panel cutout, with one isolator on each side of the
panel as shown in the diagram on page 5 .
4. Observe these restrictions when installing the connecting cables:
•
Prevent the cable from flexing within 150 ±25 mm (6 ±1 in.) installation areas.
•
Bend cables to a specific shape only in the bend zone area.
•
Provide cable supports at 3 m (10 ft) intervals along the cable run to reduce tension
and flexing at the connectors and other features on the cable.
