Trusted I/O Companion Slot Cables 

Product Overview 

This document provides detailed information for the types of Trusted® input/output (I/O) Cables 

available within the Companion Slot group. These types of cable provide connection facilities 

between the Trusted analogue and digital I/O modules, and Trusted Field Termination Assemblies 

(FTAs) or Trusted Versatile Field Termination Assemblies (VFTAs) as required. Cables are also 

available with a ‘flying lead’ at one end to allow connection to conditioned terminals. 

The types of Trusted I/O Companion Slot Cables currently available are listed in Table 1 on page 4. 

The cables are manufactured to user’s requirements; therefore length and type of cable insulation 

must be specified. Length must be specified to the nearest 0.5 m in the format xmx, e.g. 2m0 for a 

cable length of 2.0 m. This detail must be added to the end of the part number. Note that some 

cable lengths are preferred options and may be easier to obtain; please refer to Rockwell 

Automation for details. The type of cable insulation forms part of the cable part number and is 

denoted by 02 for Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) or 03 for UL Certified cable material. 02 is also 

flame retardant to IEC 60332-3 Cat A. When ordering cables, it is recommended that the user 

supplies the details as shown in Table 1.
