TC-215-01-4M5

TC‑215‑01‑4M5 is a 20‑channel, triple‑redundant (TMR) internal interconnect cable for the AADvance T9000 safety system. It connects I/O modules (analog/digital input or output) to field termination assemblies (FTAs/TAs), carrying signal and 24 VDC power in one assembly. This is the 4‑meter standard length variant of the TC‑215 series, used for high‑availability, fault‑tolerant safety loops in SIL 3 / SIL 4 process environments.
