Cabling
When using Easy Config Modes, the Wireless Bolt Serial that is to be configured as a Client does not need to be connected to the Ethernet wires. Only power and serial wiring are used.
To make an Ethernet, serial and power connector cable for Anybus Wireless Bolt Serial:
To maintain signal integrity, low emission and high immunity to EMI, untwist the twisted pair cable as little as possible.
1. Cut off one of the connectors on a standard Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cable.
2. Strip off about 40 mm (1½ inch) of the cable jacket, from the orange,
orange/white, green and green/white wires. The shield and the other wires are
not used.
3. Strip off about 7 mm (¼ inch) of the isolation on each wire.
4. Push the pin spring release next to each socket on the connector and
insert the correct wire end according to Connector, p. 7.
5. Connect the wires from the serial device to the connector in the same way
as the Ethernet wiring.
