Product Details
The Foxboro P0800KD, also cataloged as the P0800KD Carrierband LAN Assembly, operates as a dedicated hardware component for high-speed local area network signal coupling within Foxboro I/A Series control networks. It provides physical network trunk connection and impedance-matched signal coupling to execute deterministic carrierband LAN communication between system control nodes and field sub-racks.

Channel Isolation and Analog Loop Signal Protection
The Foxboro P0800KD utilizes wideband coupling transformers and high-frequency isolation barriers engineered to reject common-mode line noise on carrierband network trunks. By suppressing ground potential differences across node drops, the assembly maintains frame transmission integrity while preventing electrical transients from coupling into nearby 4-20 mA HART loop protocol wiring and analog I/O card channels.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does the P0800KD Carrierband LAN Assembly require external DC power inputs?
A: No, the P0800KD functions as a passive network coupling assembly that processes carrierband RF signals directly without drawing external DC power.
Q: How does the assembly prevent network corruption when connecting or disconnecting nodes?
A: The passive coupling circuit maintains consistent line loading and impedance matching on the main carrierband trunk, allowing local drop connections without degrading primary network transmission paths.
Field Installation Guidelines
Mount the P0800KD securement bracket directly to the cabinet framework or mounting baseplate. Ensure all coaxial or shielded twisted-pair LAN tap connections are fully seated and locked to prevent high-frequency signal attenuation or impedance mismatches.
Maintain a minimum separation distance between carrierband LAN trunk cables and heavy power conductors or AC drive wiring. Connect all cable shields to the main cabinet ground bar at the designated single-point earth connection. For cabinet conduit entries, ensure all NPT fittings achieve a minimum of 5 full threads of engagement to maintain environmental sealing and structural grounding.
