Siemens 6XV1840-2AH10 | Industrial Ethernet FC TP Standard Cable GP 2x2
The Siemens 6XV1840-2AH10 is the industry-standard backbone for PROFINET Type A networks, designed specifically for fixed industrial installations. This 4-core, shielded Cat5e cable belongs to the SIMATIC NET family, ensuring high-speed data integrity across your automation architecture. Because it utilizes solid copper cores and a specialized double-shielded design, it provides exceptional resistance to electromagnetic interference (EMI). Engineers frequently choose this FastConnect (FC) cable because it drastically reduces the time required for onsite connector assembly. Moreover, the rigid construction ensures that once the cable is installed, it maintains its electrical characteristics over years of continuous operation.
Reliability in a factory environment depends on the quality of the physical layer, and this cable meets those demands. It features a robust PVC outer sheath that protects the internal twisted pairs from oil, dust, and mechanical stress. Furthermore, the cable is sold by the meter, allowing you to order the exact length required for your specific plant layout. This flexibility makes it a cost-effective solution for both small machine builds and large-scale facility-wide network expansions. Therefore, if you are building a PROFINET system, this cable provides the professional-grade connectivity required for maximum uptime and performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the maximum length I can order for a single roll?
You can order a single continuous length of up to 4,000 meters, with a minimum order quantity of 20 meters.
Can I use this cable for a robotic arm with frequent movement?
No, this is a Type A cable for fixed installations; for high-flex applications, you should use Type C trailing cables.
Do I need special tools to connect this cable to an RJ45 plug?
While you can use standard tools, we highly recommend the Siemens FastConnect Stripping Tool for the most reliable results.
Is this cable suitable for outdoor use?
The PVC jacket is designed for industrial indoor use; for outdoor or direct burial, specialized PE-jacketed cables are more appropriate.
