RS485 Serial Bus Cable – Reliable Communication in Automation Systems

This shielded RS485 cable is a solid solution for building and expanding communication networks in industrial automation systems, monitoring, and applications requiring stable data transmission over longer distances. Made of copper with a multi-strand wire, it provides flexibility and resistance to mechanical damage. The gray PVC coating protects against external factors.

This cable is particularly useful where resistance to electromagnetic interference is important – thanks to the shielding, the signal is effectively isolated from noise, guaranteeing reliable data transmission. The use of copper as the conductor material ensures good conductivity and minimizes signal loss.

Construction and application

The cable consists of four cores (2x2), each with a cross-section of 24 mm², allowing for efficient data transmission in RS485 buses. The stranded wire construction increases the cable's flexibility, making it easy to install even in tight spaces. Shielding with foil and braid provides additional protection against interference.

• Data transmission cables: Ideal for building RS485 networks in control and monitoring systems.
• Industrial automation: Excellent for connecting sensors, PLCs and other devices in an industrial environment.
• Security systems: Suitable for alarm and video surveillance installations where reliable communication is critical.
• Smart buildings: Can be used to integrate various systems in smart buildings (e.g., lighting, heating, ventilation).
