Technical Infrastructure Summary

The YCB141-M030 is a long-distance coaxial communication cable designed for Yokogawa V net control network systems. It operates under the 10BASE-2 (Thin Ethernet) standard and provides reliable deterministic communication between Field Control Stations (FCS), Human Interface Stations (HIS), and V net bus couplers.

The 30-meter (M030) variant is typically used for cross-room or long-haul control room connectivity while maintaining signal stability. The cable features industrial-grade multi-layer shielding to maintain 50 Ω impedance and reduce electromagnetic interference in large plant environments.

Detailed Engineering Specifications

Strategic Application Context

• Cross-room communication between distributed control cabinets

• Long-distance V net bus backbone extension within 10BASE-2 segment limits

• Redundant network path deployment for high-availability control systems

Technical FAQ

Can YCB141-M030 be used for Vnet/IP?
No. This cable is for legacy coaxial V net networks. Vnet/IP requires Ethernet-based cabling such as CAT5e/CAT6 or fiber optic media.

What are the risks of long cable runs?
Long runs are generally acceptable within specifications but are more vulnerable to physical damage and signal attenuation. Maintaining proper bend radius is important to avoid impedance mismatch and communication errors.

Does it require terminators?
Yes. V net segments must be terminated with 50 Ω resistors at both ends of the network bus. The cable itself does not provide termination.
