Hi,

Marcus has been of great help on the ML through CATx cable....does ANYONE have experience with driving POWERLINK through CAT 6 STP or know if this can be done??????

 My workers are waiting for an answer if we can make these runs with CAT or do we have to use PL???

Thanks guys....

Keith

Hello Keith.

I have successfully been running Masterlink through CAT6 STP using the Lexcom products. They also offer the same support for Powerlink – so without my own experience with Powerlink, a would be surprised if i doesn’t work.

What you need for running Powerlink is:

1. Adapter from B&O Powerlink to Lexcom (cable part no. 6270017 ordered from B&O. Different lengths are avaiable. Look in the Master Link Handbook from B&O)

2. Power Link Module BO100-PL from Lexcom (article no. 30 633 0013 ordered from Lexcom reseller)

Good Luck!
