Configured for high-speed Superloop data transmission in Bailey Infi 90 architectures, the ABB NKLS02-15 (NKLS02 Superloop Cable) provides direct physical/electrical execution.

Cable Part Number Architecture

The NKLS02-15 nomenclature specifies the physical construction and length parameters of the Bailey Infi 90 interconnect assembly. The base designation NKLS02 denotes the standardized high-frequency twinaxial cable construction with optimized shield coverage for Superloop interfaces. The suffix -15 defines the factory-preassembled length of 15 feet (4.57 meters).

Technical Parameters

Deterministic Industrial Network Architecture

The cable assembly supports high-integrity backplane bus communication velocity and deterministic node-to-node networking across the distributed control system network. Low signal attenuation at high frequency preserves waveform geometry across the 15-foot physical span. This maintains strict transmission timing and low bit error rates across firmware flash compatibility layers and processing modules.

Fulfillment Package Content

• 1 x ABB NKLS02-15 Superloop Cable Assembly (15 ft)

Field Wiring and Mounting Procedures

• Maintain a minimum static bend radius of 150 mm along the entire cable run to avoid conductor strain.
• Earth the cable shield drain wire directly to the cabinet signal ground bus at one end only to prevent ground loop currents.
• Secure cable leads using flame-retardant tie wraps spaced every 300 mm inside the enclosure wireways.
• Inspect pin alignment on the connector shell prior to final insertion into the module communication port.

Technical FAQ

• What is the attenuation limit for the NKLS02-15 cable?

  Signal attenuation remains below or equal to 0.6 dB at a test frequency of 10 MHz over the total 15-foot length.

• What conductor thickness is used in this assembly?

  The internal physical construction incorporates conductors rated between 22 AWG and 24 AWG.

• Can the cable withstand exposure to sub-zero temperatures?

  The cable maintains full operational performance across ambient temperatures down to -20 deg C.

• Is external power required to operate this cable unit?

  No, this assembly is a passive electrical conductor network and draws no active operating current.

• What is the maximum voltage rating for signal insulation?

  The cable assembly features an electrical insulation system rated for up to 300 V AC.

• Does the cable require specific grounding practices?

  Yes, proper shield grounding must be implemented at the designated panel terminal to suppress cross-talk.

• What is the primary role of the NKLS02-15 within Infi 90?

  It serves as the dedicated Superloop physical connection cable between local and remote processing cabinets.

• How should the cable be stored when not in service?

  Store the unit in a non-condensing environment with ambient temperatures between -40 and +85 deg C.
