Honeywell 51305380-100 TDC 3000 Media Access Unit Cable

Product Overview

The Honeywell 51305380-100 functions as a dedicated, high-shielding Media Access Unit (MAU) attachment cable within the Honeywell TDC 3000 Local Control Network (LCN) infrastructure. This heavy-duty cable establishes a critical, deterministic data pathway between the external MAU transceiver and the internal LCNP4 workstation card. We distribute this network component exclusively in 100% brand new, original factory condition to eliminate signal dropouts, maintain proper network impedance, and prevent packet loss across the plant backbone.

Technical Specifications

Engineering Advantages

• Suppresses High-Frequency RFI: The cable assembly incorporates dense, multi-layered braided shielding and foil wraps. This construction shields delicate data packets from intense radio frequency interference (RFI) emitted by adjacent motor control centers (MCCs).

• Eliminates Pin Alignment Failures: Precision-molded 15-pin female connectors utilize heavy gold plating on machined contacts to maintain low contact resistance, resisting oxidation during decades of continuous service.

• Withstands Tight Enclosure Bends: A highly flexible, industrial-grade outer jacket allows instrument technicians to route the cable through sharp wiring trough curves and congested cabinet paths without collapsing the internal wire geometry or compromising impedance ratings.

• Secures Mechanical Stability: Integrated retention thumbscrews on both 15-pin D-sub connectors lock the cable physically to the LCNP4 card and MAU frame, preventing accidental dislodgement caused by persistent plant floor vibration.

FAQs

• Can I use this cable to connect standard PC hardware to a generic network switch?

  No. The 51305380-100 features a specific 15-pin female-to-female pinout configured exclusively for proprietary industrial communications between a Honeywell MAU transceiver and an LCNP4 interface board.

• Does this product arrive as open-box surplus or a reconditioned assembly?

  We guarantee this cable is 100% brand new, authentic factory stock. It arrives in its original sealed protective packaging, ensuring unblemished insulation and pristine connector pins.

• What procedure ensures a proper connection when attaching this cable to the LCNP4 card?

  First, turn off power to the workstation node. Align the 15-pin female end smoothly over the LCNP4 card’s male interface port, push until the connector seats fully, and finger-tighten both locking screws to ensure a permanent mechanical ground loop.
