Upgrade to CTi's Profinet Type R Cable: Optimal Solution for Robotic Applications

2024.09.20

PROFINET is one of the leading standards for industrial networking in automation. It connects devices, systems, and cells, facilitating faster, safer, less costly and higher quality manufacturing. The Industrial Ethernet standard easily integrates existing systems and equipment while bringing the richness of Ethernet down to the factory floor.

CTi offers a comprehensive lineup of products, including PROFINET Type A, B, and C cables, each classified for different applications within PROFINET networks. Today, we'll introduce you to our Type R cable, specifically designed for “Robotic” applications and engineered for PROFINET Real-Time (RT) applications. Type R cable is optimized for high-speed communication, meeting the demands of industrial automation applications. It is designed for robust industrial environments, offering reliable performance for PROFINET communication systems. With enhanced shielding and durability, they can withstand harsh conditions, ensuring consistent data transmission and minimizing interference.

What sets our Profinet Type R cable apart?

While other well-known cable manufacturers typically achieve 5 million cycles for Trailing Chain Test & Vertical Torsion Test, and 1 million cycles for Reverse Bending Test, CTi's innovative Profinet cable surpasses these standards. Our cable can achieve an impressive 7 million cycles with vertical torsion testing, 6 million cycles for trailing chain, and 1 million cycles for reverse bending testing. We're committed to pushing the limits, subjecting our cables to longer testing periods to ensure they can endure the harshest industrial environments.
