Neutron Cable Requirements

Neutron Cable Requirements

  • Input Power - Belden 8461 - two conductor, stranded, AWG 18 wire

  • NXT Readers
  • Belden 8723 (or equivalent) - this is a 2-pair shielded, stranded, twisted cable.
  • Belden 9842 or equivalent (two twisted pairs in one jacket).
  • AWG 24 (or greater).

  • RS-485 Network Cable - Belden 9501 - two conductor, shielded, twisted pair, stranded, AWG 24 wire or larger (note that increasing the wire gauge does not increase the total network length.
    - The total network length is 4,000 feet/1,000 metres.
  • Input and Output Connections - Belden 8461 - two conductor, stranded, AWG 18 wire.

    Note: The Lock Output relay may require a heavier gauge of wire depending upon the current demands of the lock and the length of the lock wiring run.

  • USB Adapter to PC Extension Cable - A USB extension cable can be used to extend the connection between the PC and the USB adapter - this cable should be a maximum length of 20 feet.
