external contact surface. All the pairs making up the cable are surrounded by a
braided shield of tin-plated copper wires (coverage approximately 90%).

Labeling
The standard cable is labeled as follows:
”SIEMENS SIMATIC NET INDUSTRIAL ETHERNET ITP”.
If the cable is supplied without connectors, the label above is followed by the order
number “6XV1850-0AH10”.
There are also markers at one meter intervals. These make it simple to check the
length of the cable.
