Signal cable requirements


The cable length and quality affect the quality of the signal. Observe the following cable requirements:

  • Conductor cross-section: 0.5 mm² to 0.75 mm² (21 AWG to 19 AWG)

  • External diameter: Max. 8 mm (0.3 in)

  • Maximum cable length: 100 m (328 ft)

  • Insulation stripping length: 6 mm (0.24 in)

  • Sheath stripping length: 150 mm (5.9 in)

  • UV-resistant for outdoor use

  • The cable type and cable-laying method must be appropriate for the application and location.
