Route all Industrial Ethernet cables in dedicated cable ducts away from high-voltage motor power leads to prevent electromagnetic noise coupling. Ensure Ethernet cable shielding is properly connected to earth ground, and maintain proper physical ventilation space around the IP20 chassis to facilitate thermal dissipation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ABB","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45368259969139,"sku":"CM579-ETHCAT","price":233.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/4348\/2227\/files\/CM579-ETHCAT_2.jpg?v=1786936111","url":"https:\/\/www.dcssupplier.com\/ar\/products\/abb-cm579-ethcat-ac500-communication-module","provider":"DcsSupplier Limited","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
