Bus Connection Using Fiber Optics (FO)
Data transmission via fiber optics is preferred if the physical
limits of copper-based data communication have been
reached.
–
Fiber optic transmission paths offer the following features in
particular:
– Immunity to interference under extreme
electromagnetic interference
– High-quality electrical isolation between
communication units
– Transmission distances of up to several kilometers
– High transmission speeds
–
Nothing changes for the user when fiber optic technology is
used. Bus topology, configuration, and programming of the
system remain the same. This enables the combined use of
fiber optics, copper cables, and other transmission media in
a single system.
Polymer fiber cables
Depending on the system used, polymer fiber cables
are used for distances up to 70 meters.
HCS cables
Depending on the system used, HCS cables are used
for distances up to 400 meters. These cables feature
extremely low fiber attenuation.
The following installation guidelines must be observed as
bending radii that are too small, a tensile load that is too
high, and squeezing the cable result in increased
attenuation of the transmitted optical power. This can also
cause permanent damage to the cable. Increased
attenuation may shorten the maximum possible
transmission path and reduce transmission quality.
Fiber optics are available in the form of HCS and polymer
fiber cables.
Technical modifications reserved.
Fiber optic cables must only be installed and assembled by specialist personnel.
Make sure you always use the latest documentation.

System Differentiation of 50 m and 70 m Systems and OPC Systems
–
–
All INTERBUS devices that were supplied before
January 1998 are 50 m systems. These devices are
not marked and support 50 m polymer fibers and
300 m HCS fibers.
Since January 1998 a large part of the product range
has been supplied with 70 m interfaces. These
devices are clearly marked with a corresponding label
and support 70 m polymer fiber distances and 400 m
HCS fiber distances.
–
From the year 2000 onwards, INTERBUS devices
have been fitted with the SUPI 3 OPC INTERBUS
protocol chip. In this generation, optical transmission
power is automatically regulated depending on the
path attenuation. The maximum distance for polymer
fibers is 50 m and, for HCS fibers, 300 m. These
devices are marked with a corresponding label.

Installation Guidelines for Polymer Fiber Cables (980/1000 µm)
The properties of a fiber optic transmission system are
mainly determined by:
– Optical interface performance
– Cable type used
– Quality of the installation and of the connector
assembly
Do Not Exceed Maximum Cable Lengths
When installing polymer fiber cables, the
maximum cable length of 50 or 70 m
(depending on the fiber optic system used)
between two devices must not be exceeded
(see page 29). The cable length can be further
reduced using special cables or joints
(see page 34).
Safe data transmission is ensured up to this length if the
cables have been correctly installed.
Do Not Use Cables Shorter Than the Permitted
Minimum Lengths
Fiber optic cables that are shorter than 1 m can
result in the receiver being overcontrolled.
Only use cables longer than 1 m. (For paths
less than 1 m, see "Notes for Cable Lengths
< 1 m" on page 30.)
The Bending Radius Must Be Maintained
Please ensure that the minimum bending
radius is no smaller than 30 to 135 mm
(for bending radii for polymer fiber cables, see
page 36). This is particularly important if fiber
optic cables are led through housing or
installed in right angle cable ducts.
Do Not Exceed Tensile Load and Lateral Strength
In order to monitor the installed cable length,
Phoenix Contact cables are marked with consecutive
meter lengths.
The permanent tensile load of a polymer fiber
cable must not exceed 100 N (see page 36).
A system reserve of 3 dB is taken into account for the
maximum transmission distance. This means that the
optical power transmitted through the cable can drop to half
of the initial value due to the aging of system components,
without affecting the safe operation of the fiber optic path.
Squeezing the cable, for a period longer than
just stepping on it, must be avoided (lateral
strength up to 20 N/cm).

Installation Guidelines for HCS Cables (200/230 µm)
Do Not Exceed Maximum Cable Lengths
When installing HCS cables, the maximum
cable length of 300 or 400 m (depending on
the fiber optic system used) between two
devices must not be exceeded (see page 29).
Safe data transmission is ensured up to this length if the
cables have been correctly installed.
Do Not Exceed Tensile Load and Lateral Strength
The permanent tensile load of an HCS cable
must not exceed 200 N (see page 37).
Squeezing the cable, for a period longer than
just stepping on it, must be avoided (lateral
strength of 100 N/cm to 300 N/cm).
In order to monitor the installed cable length,
Phoenix Contact cables are marked with consecutive
meter lengths.
A system reserve of 3 dB is taken into account for the
maximum transmission distance. This means that the
optical power transmitted through the cable can drop to half
of the initial value due to the aging of system components,
without affecting the safe operation of the fiber optic path.
The Bending Radius Must Be Maintained
Please note that the bending radius must not
fall below the minimum value (for bending radii
for HCS cables, see page 37). This is
particularly important if fiber optic cables are
led through housing or installed in right angle
cable ducts.

Install Fiber Optic Cables Separately
Fiber optic cables are installed in cable ducts or cable
conduits. If theses cables are installed in ducts together
with heavy power cables, the fiber optic cables should be
installed in a separated area of the duct or as the
uppermost cable.
This is to protect fiber optic cables against increased
bending and tensile loads such as those which occur,
for example, when copper cables are replaced in the
shared cable duct. If a separate installation is not possible,
you should proceed as follows when replacing copper
cables:
– Remove the fiber optic cables from the shared cable
duct.
– Install the copper cables.
– Install the fiber optic cables again according to the
installation instructions.
– To check the installation, check the optical power level
or, in the case of INTERBUS devices with SUPI 3 OPC
INTERBUS protocol chip, carry out a check via the
system.

Secure the Bending Radius: Cable
If the fiber optic cable has to be installed at a right angle,
secure it with cable binders. This prevents the bending
radius falling below its permissible range of 30 mm to
200 mm (depending on the cable type used, see "Fiber
Optic Cable Specifications" on page 36).

Secure the Bending Radius: Connector/Individual Fibers
Reduce the strain on the wire ends and connector
mechanically (e.g., using cable binders).
In vertical cable ducts, reduce the permanent tensile load
caused by the weight of the cable to a minimum through
appropriate strain relief measures.
If the cable is inserted from below, it must be secured at the
beginning of the cable sheath, so that the weight of the
cable does not put strain on the F-SMA connector and the
permissible bending radii are fixed.

Use Bend Protection When Routing a Cable Through a Control Cabinet
If cables are routed through control cabinets, the bending
radius may fall below the permissible value. The use of PG
screw connections with bend protection spirals is
recommended. These provide good strain relief for the fiber
optic cable and prevent bending radii that are too small.

Installation on Moving Parts (Control Cabinet Doors)
Squeezing and non-permissible bending radii must be
avoided when the cable crosses a moving part, e.g., a
control cabinet door. This can be ensured by additional
protection, e.g., using a secure corrugated tube or a spiral
tube.
Even if the control cabinet door is closed, the
bending radius must not fall below the
permissible value.

Installation in Special Areas
If fiber optic cables are installed close to welding robots or
in the ground, special cables must be used or appropriate
mechanical safety measures must be implemented
(e.g., installation of conduits, heat protector tube, etc.).
Do Not Squeeze Fiber Optic Cables When Securing
When securing cable binders, clamps, and control cabinet
inlets, ensure the cable is not squeezed.
Preferably use plastic fastening elements with a large
surface to avoid squeezing.
The fastening elements must have a width of at least 5 mm
and should be carefully tightened manually.

Strip the Individual Fibers
Do not use a knife, diagonal cutter or similar to
strip the individual fibers.
The Phoenix Contact cable has rugged sheathing around
each individual fiber that cannot simply be removed using
any kind of stripping pliers.
Phoenix Contact recommends using the PSM-FO-STRIP
tool that is part of the PSM-POF-KONFTOOL assembly kit.
•

Assembling HCS Fibers
Basic Information
When working with fiber optic cables observe
the mechanical properties specified by the
manufacturer. Fiber breaks can occur if the
bending radii and maximum permissible
tractive forces are exceeded or the cable is
crushed. For the corresponding data for
Phoenix Contact cables, please refer to the
Appendix.
The fast connection technology described here
is suitable for cable lengths up to 400 m. The
individual wires of HCS cables must have a
cross section of 2.9 mm.
The thin fibers of fiber optic cables are
protected by a complex cable structure. These
insulating/protective layers must be removed
from fibers for assembly.
When assembling the connectors, please
follow the described order precisely so as to
achieve a good and consistent level of quality.
Since the cable structure varies form
manufacturer to manufacturer, certain steps
may not be required.
Fast connection technology requires connectors
(F-SMA, B-FOC (ST®) or SC-RJ) and an assembly kit.
Phoenix Contact offers three assembly kits for the different
connector types:
– PSM-HCS-KONFTOOL
for F-SMA connectors
– PSM-HCS-KONFTOOL/B-FOC
for B-FOC (ST®) connectors
– PSM-HCS-KONFTOOL/SC-RJ
for SC-RJ connectors
The assembly kits contain:
– Stripping knife
– F-SMA connector (4 pcs.) or B-FOC connector (4 pcs.)
or SC-RJ connector (2 duplex connectors)
– Aramide scissors
– Stripping pliers
– Wire stripper
– HCS fiber cleaving tool
– Microscope
– Adhesive strips
Cut the Cable Sheath Lengthways
•
•
Position the cable cross section so that the cable is cut
along the aramide yarn or the tearing wire.
Place the stripping knife (KAMES LWL) on the cable
sheath approximately 10 cm away from the cable end.
Pull the stripping knife lengthways. If necessary repeat
this step until the cable sheath is cut open.

Power Measurement After Initial Installation
After the installation of a fiber optic link, the optical power
can be checked before the receiving device using a fiber
optic measuring device.
Power measurement is not necessary for
INTERBUS devices with a SUPI 3 OPC
INTERBUS protocol chip.
With these devices, the quality of the
transmission path is automatically determined
and compensated for in limits. The optical
power of an installed path can be determined
using the CMD software (Version 4.5x or later).
A reference cable must be used to measure the optical
power after 1 m of cable. This measuring cable is supplied
as standard with the PSM-FO-POWERMETER measuring
device case.
Measure the Optical Power
For polymer fibers and HCS fibers, set the
measuring device to 660 nm and the power
measuring range to dBm.
When using the QUICK F-SMA connector
(Q-FSMA-KT), you must use the
Q-FSMA-IBS-MA measuring device adapter.
•
•
Set the INTERBUS modules to steady light. For this
check you must interrupt the bus directly after the
controller board and check if the operating voltage is
present at the modules. (An operating voltage is
present if the green UL LEDs of all modules are on.)

Power Measurement (Polymer Fibers)
After initial installation, the level measured by the
reference cable for safe data transmission should not be
outside the tolerance range for the minimum transmission
power as specified in the table above. This reference cable
is part of the PSM-FO-POWERMETER measuring device
case.
The minimum measured values, which must be
maintained at the end of the laid cables, are shown in the
following figures (page 31 to page 35).
This information also takes into account all temperature
influences of the transmit and receive components and a
system reserve of 3 dB.
This system reserve must be maintained in each fiber optic
system to reduce physical aging of the optical transmitter.
This value is typically 1 dB in the first year and
approximately 0.2 dB per year after that. This results in a
service life of more than ten years at maximum system
application.
5570_en_03
PHOENIX CONTACT

IBS SYS FOC ASSEMBLY
Notes for Cable Lengths < 1 m
As a general rule, a minimum path length of
1 m must be maintained. Phoenix Contact can
only ensure that fiber optic receivers will not be
overcontrolled due to excessive optical power,
if this minimum length is observed.
If cable lengths under 1 m are used, the optical
power must be checked at the cable end so
that overcontrol is avoided (see table row
"Maximum permitted optical power at the
receiver [dBm]" on page 29).
It is the responsibility of the installation
engineer and the customer to ensure that this
check is carried out.
Alternatively, optical control and diagnostics
can be used in order to check that paths < 1 m
are operating correctly.
Limit Value for Manual Optical Power Measurement
•
Disconnect the connection to the controller board.
•
For OPC systems: Reset the voltage on the controller
board.
This automatically sets the control level to 14.
•
Measure the optical power using an optical power
device at the end of the installed cable.
If the following limit value is maintained, overcontrol of the
receiver is avoided:
Poptical < -3.6 dBm (for OPC systems -4.5 dBm)
Limit Value for OPC Diagnostics
•
Start up the bus at the affected location.
One effect of overcontrol is that the next module may not be
detected.
Even if the bus can be started up, problems may arise due
to changes in the ambient temperature during operation,
which will cause the optical power to increase and possibly
result in overcontrol of the bus at a later stage.
•
Read the optical diagnostics.
If the OPC system is operated with a minimum control
level of 5 (or higher), overcontrol can be avoided even in
the event of temperature drifts.

Power Measurement (HCS Cable)
For safe data transmission, the level measured after initial
installation must not exceed a maximum value of
-10 dBm and must not fall below a minimum value of
-22.6 dBm (in 50 m/70 m systems) and -19.2 dBm (in
OPC systems). This level takes into account all
temperature influences of the transmit and receive
components and a system reserve of 3 dB.
Due to the aging of the transmitter diode, the optical
transmission power is usually reduced by typically 1 dB in
the first year and by approximately 0.2 dB per year after
that. All in all this results in a service life of more than ten
years.

•
•
•
•
Start INTERBUS using the CMD software
(Version 4.5x or later). Read the configuration frame
and execute parameterization.
Ensure that the bus is running.
Select the "Add-On Programs" menu item from the
"Options" menu.
Select the "orm.dll" file in the "bin" directory and
confirm with "OK".
Select the "Optical Diagnostics" menu item from the
controller board context menu.
•
•
Select the "Read In" menu item in the "Optical
Diagnostics" window.
Select the "Current Values" menu item to read the
current optical diagnostic data.
Values are displayed for the path length, optical power
levels for forward and return paths, and an evaluation of the
path quality. More or less the same values should be
displayed for forward and return paths. If the values of the
optical diagnostics are too poor, the installation and the
cable assembly of the corresponding paths must be
checked.

Application of Cables Suitable for Use With Drag Chain
The highly flexible PSM-LWL-RUGGED-FLEX drag chain
cable has an alternating bending strength of 5 million
cycles.
Due to the high basic attenuation of the cable,
the transmission length is reduced by 15 m.
Application of HCS Outdoor Cables
The HCS outdoor cable has a higher basic attenuation at
lower ambient temperatures (< 0°C).
Compared to the standard HCS cable the
transmission length of HCS outdoor cables is
reduced by 100 m.
