Signal and DC power supply cables
Operating unshielded signal and direct current supply cables (e.g. 24 V infeed with external
supply):
● Direct current supply cables: Max. permissible length: 10 m
● Unshielded signal cables: Max. permissible length: 30 m (without additional wiring)
For greater lengths, suitable wiring must be connected by the user to provide overvoltage
protection. For example:
