FOXBORO P0916FL
Product Introduction
When your control panel layout requires extended reach between the FBM rack and remote terminal blocks, the provides a reliable 10-meter connection. This Type 4 field wiring cable assembly bridges the gap between FBM2xx modules and Type 4 terminal assemblies, maintaining signal integrity across longer distances.
Designed for industrial environments, the features proper shielding to prevent EMI degradation over its 10-meter length. Unlike the 5-meter P0916DD, this cable accommodates larger panels or remote-mounted terminal blocks without requiring intermediate junction boxes or signal repeaters.
Key Selling Points & Differentiators
- 10-Meter Extended Reach: Provides double the length of the P0916DD, enabling flexible panel layouts and remote terminal mounting without signal degradation.
- Type 4 Compatibility: Engineered specifically for FBM2xx modules with Type 4 terminal assemblies, ensuring correct pinout and signal routing.
- Verified Functionality: Every undergoes continuity, insulation, and shield integrity testing before shipping, complete with a signed test report.
- Not Recommended For: Do not use this cable with Type 1 terminal assemblies or applications requiring shorter cable runs. Excess cable length creates EMI risk; select the shortest length that accommodates your routing.
- Stock Availability: Current inventory is factory-sealed new surplus with traceable lot numbers; typically ships within 48 hours of order confirmation.
- Warranty Backed: Includes a 1-year functional warranty covering manufacturing defects and DOA conditions, with no restocking fees for verified failures.

FAQ
Yes. All units in stock have passed our continuity, insulation, and shield integrity tests. We ship same-day for orders placed before 2 PM EST, so you’ll have tracking before end of day.
No. The is specifically a Type 4 cable assembly. Type 1 applications require a different cable variant. Always verify your terminal assembly type before ordering.
The P0916DD is a 5-meter Type 1 cable, while the is a 10-meter Type 4 cable. Choose based on your actual routing distance and terminal assembly type—excess cable length can create EMI issues and snag hazards.
What if the cable fails within the warranty period?
We offer a no-questions-asked replacement for any verified manufacturing defect. Ship the failed unit back with your RMA number, and we’ll send a replacement within 24 hours of receipt.
Can this 10-meter cable handle high-interference environments?
Yes. The features proper shielding for industrial environments. However, longer cables are more susceptible to EMI. Ensure proper routing away from high-voltage cables, VFD outputs, and motor leads. Maintain separation and correct grounding practices at both ends.
Is this a refurbished or new surplus unit?
This is New Original (New Surplus) – factory sealed, never installed, with full traceability to the original manufacturing lot. It is not refurbished, repaired, or pulled from a decommissioned system. We provide the original manufacturer’s lot code upon request for your quality records.
Quality Transparency SOP
- Incoming Verification: Source traceability confirmed via lot code; anti-counterfeit visual inspection; serial number cross-referenced with OEM records; accessories verified.
- Live Bench Test: Dedicated test bench; cable continuity test; insulation resistance verification; connector pin alignment check; shield integrity validation; signed test report generated.
- Electrical Tests: Insulation resistance verified at 500V megger (>10 MΩ); shield continuity confirmed; conductor resistance validated.
- Firmware Verification: N/A (Passive cable component).
- Final QC & Packaging: QC sign-off; anti-static seal applied; shock protection installed; QC Passed label affixed with date and inspector ID.
Test photos and video available upon request. We never claim “100% failure-free” – we provide verified, tested units with documented performance.
Technical Risk Avoidance
- Cable Type Mismatch: Risk: Signal failure or module damage. Prevention: Verify you are using Type 4 cable with Type 4 terminal assemblies. Field Note: We’ve seen customers order when they needed a Type 1 variant for their specific terminal assembly. Always verify terminal type.
- Excess Cable Length: Risk: EMI susceptibility and snag hazards. Prevention: Select the shortest cable that accommodates your routing path. Field Note: A 10-meter cable coiled in a panel acted as an antenna, causing intermittent analog noise. Measure before ordering.
- Improper Routing: Risk: Signal degradation from EMI. Prevention: Route cable away from high-voltage conductors and motor leads. Field Note: Running field cables parallel to a VFD output caused 4-20mA drift. Maintain separation.
- Connector Damage: Risk: Intermittent connections. Prevention: Inspect connectors before installation; do not force misaligned connections. Field Note: Bent pins from forced insertion caused channel dropouts. Align carefully before seating.
- ESD Damage: Risk: Damage to FBM during cable installation. Prevention: Use grounded wrist strap when handling FBM and cable. Field Note: Static discharge during cable installation damaged the FBM input circuits. Handle with care.
