Features:

  • Signal Pathway Between the Internal FTA and Trusted I/O Companion Slot
  • 40-Channel Input Routing with Dual Hood Connector Assembly
  • Integrated Shield and Earth Termination for Safety-Critical Applications
The TC-201-02-4M5 functions as the Trusted I/O Companion Slot Cable in a Trusted control system, providing reliable signal connectivity for all input channels within the module. It continuously routes incoming field signals from the internal FTA through 40 dedicated input channels and delivers these connections through the companion slot interface to support steady state operation of both analogue and digital input modules. Secure signal transfer is standard with the TC-201-02-4M5, with the multi-core construction and dual-connector hood design ensuring consistent channel integrity across the full signal path. The TC-201-02-4M5 has been engineered with specific connector configurations and shielding provisions that improve upon standard interconnect designs in addition to incorporating comprehensive grounding capability within the Trusted I/O architecture.

The TC-201-02-4M5 provides essential interconnection functions common to the entire input signal path, and is a critical component of the I/O companion slot channel, directly affecting the proper, normal operation of the overall Trusted input system. One TC-201-02-4M5 cable is required per companion slot configuration to establish the complete 40-channel input interface. The TC-201-02-4M5 routes from the internal FTA to the input module and is always connected to the companion slot position (the dedicated I/O companion slot interface).

For complete 40-channel input connectivity, the Trusted system requires the TC-201-02-4M5 cable properly installed between the internal FTA and the companion slot. In addition to standard signal routing, the cable configuration also provides integrated shield and earth termination. The TC-201-02-4M5 dual-hood architecture executes grounding using the internal braid and screen drain provisions specified in the cable design. Using this method, the cable system continually maintains shield continuity across both connector ends. If the installation requires proper earthing at either termination point, the sheathed braids allow the hoods to be wired to safety earth while the remote screen drain enables automatic connection to screen earth through the dedicated green wire.

The TC-201-02-4M5 ICS TRIPLEX Trusted I/O Companion Slot Cable may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Description
The ICS TRIPLEX TC-201-02-4M5 Trusted I/O Companion Slot Cable is a component engineered for use with analogue or digital input modules. It provides a dedicated internal connection that routes 40 channels of input signals directly from an internal Field Termination Assembly (FTA) to the main module. This specialized construction ensures secure, high-density signal transfer within complex safety-critical architectures.

This robust TC-201-02-4M5 cable is specifically designed to handle the critical problem of signal degradation, electromagnetic interference, and structural cable strain within high-density control enclosures. By incorporating structured cable terminations and comprehensive grounding options, the TC-201-02-4M5 resolves the issue of unreliable field connections and vulnerabilities to electrical noise. It ensures that critical input data reaches the processing modules without interruption or distortion, mitigating the risk of false trips or system downtime.

The TC-201-02-4M5 is ideally suited for application fields requiring the highest levels of functional safety and triple modular redundancy (TMR), such as emergency shutdown (ESD) systems, fire and gas (F&G) detection, and critical burner management systems (BMS). It is widely deployed in demanding process industries including oil and gas refining, petrochemical production, power generation facilities, and large-scale chemical processing plants where continuous uptime is vital.

For installation and integration, the chassis end of the TC-201-02-4M5 multi-core cable features two 96-way type ‘C’ connectors housed in a double-width hood, while the remote FTA end utilizes a 96-way type ‘R’ connector in a single-width hood. It is stripped back 1.5 meters at both ends and shrouded in nylon Rilgain sheathing with heat-treated ends to prevent fraying. Technicians integrating the TC-201-02-4M5 must wire the sheathed braid at both ends to the safety earth, and connect the green wire from the multi-core screen drain to the screen earth at the remote end to establish proper electrical protection.
