(See Note 1)
Note 1. Only shielded twisted pair
cables should be used for
connections. Shields should be
left open at the field end and
connected to chassis ground at
the ground screws on the
backplane.
Note 3. Pins marked “N/C” (Not
Connected) are not electronically
connected to the module.

Note 2. Maximum non-
hazardous area voltage must
not exceed 250 V.
Note 5. To maintain intrinsic
safety, shield for each cable
must be grounded and must
extend as close to the terminal
as possible.
Note 6. Intrinsically Safe (I.S)
cables of one module must be
routed separately from I.S.
cables of another module.
Note 7. I.S. devices when
connected to I.S. terminals must

Note 3. If the electrical
parameters of the cable are
unknown, the following values
must be used for Ccable and
Lcable:
Capacitance 60 Pf/ft
Inductance 0.20 uH/ft
Note 4. Only Quantum
140 XBP 0X 00 backplanes
should be used for mounting
this module along with the
following UL listed modules:
140 CPU xxx xx

Note 4. Install in accordance
with the NEC (ANSI/NFPA 70)
and ANSI/ISA RP 12.6 for
installation in the United States.
