WIRING
This chapter describes the wiring methods, wiring products, and wiring precautions when the CC-Link IE TSN Plus module is
used.
Wiring methods
The following describes connection and disconnection of the Ethernet cable.
■Connecting the cable
1.
Push the Ethernet cable connector into the CC-Link IE TSN Plus module until it clicks. Pay attention to the connector's
direction.
2.
Lightly pull it to check that it is securely connected.
3.
Check whether the LINK LED of P1 or P2 connected with an Ethernet cable is on.
*1 The time between the cable connection and the LINK LED turning on may vary. The LINK LED usually turns on in a few seconds. Note,
however, that the time may be extended further if the link-up processing is repeated depending on the status of the device on the line. If
the LINK LED does not turn on, refer to the following and take corrective actions.
Page 366 When the LINK LED turns off
When using CC-Link IE TSN, connect the Ethernet cable to P1.
When using EtherNet/IP, connect the Ethernet cable to P2.
■Disconnecting the cable
1.
Press the latch down and unplug the Ethernet cable.
■Precautions
Be sure to observe the precautions for wiring. Otherwise, some functions may not operate normally.

Description
• Use the dedicated Ethernet cable shown in Page 71 Wiring products.
• Place the Ethernet cable in a duct or clamp them. If not, dangling cable may swing or inadvertently be pulled, resulting in damage
to the module or cables or malfunction due to poor contact.
• Do not touch the core of the cable-side or module-side connector, and protect it from dirt or dust. If oil from your hand, dirt or dust is
attached to the core, it can increase transmission loss, arising a problem in a data link.
• Check that the Ethernet cable is not disconnected or not shorted and there is no problem with the connector connection.
• Do not use Ethernet cables with broken latches. Doing so may cause the cable to unplug or malfunction.
• Hold the connector part when connecting and disconnecting the Ethernet cable. Pulling the cable connected to the module may
result in malfunction or damage to the module or cable.
• The maximum station-to-station distance of the Ethernet cable is 100m. However, the length may be shorter depending on the
operating environment of the cable. For details, contact the manufacturer of the cable used.
• The bend radius of the Ethernet cable is limited. For details, check the specifications of the Ethernet cable to be used.
• Prevent foreign matter such as dust or wire chips from entering the module. Such foreign matter can cause a fire, failure, or
malfunction.
• When a protective film is attached to the top of the module, remove it for heat dissipation before system operation.
• For Ethernet cables to be used in the system, select the ones that meet the specifications in the user's manual for the module used.
If not, normal data transmission is not guaranteed.
• Communication with the Ethernet device may not be possible depending on the specifications of the connected Ethernet device or
switching hub. If communication is not possible, reduce the communication data volume of the Ethernet device.
