For increased data security in an insecure environment, we recommend
an 8-pin 1:1 LAN network cable (e.g. CAT5 cable, screened and twisted)
as an alternative to the ribbon cable. These cables can be obtained from
Fronius pre-assembled:
- CAT5 cable 1 m - 3.28 ft - (43,0004,2435)
- CAT5 cable 20 m - 65.6 ft - (43,0004,2434)
- CAT5 cable 60 m - 196.8 ft - (43,0004,2436)
If you would like to assemble these twisted cables yourself, it is vital that
you adhere to the following pin assignment for the RJ45 plug:
- Pin 1: +12V (white/orange)
- Pin 2: GND (orange)
- Pin 3: RX+ (white/green)
- Pin 4: TX+ (blue)
- Pin 5: TX- (white/blue)
- Pin 6: RX- (green)
- Pin 7: GND (white/brown)
- Pin 8: +12 V (brown)
NOTE Data cables are not UV resistant. They should be protected
from sunlight when laid outdoors.

Following the cable connections described below, connect each „OUT“
socket of the previous SolarNet client to the „IN“ socket of the next client.
The total individual lengths of all connection cables should not exceed
1000 m (3280 ft).
