Product Description
Foxboro P0914QG BCOM17 Invensys I/A Series Fiber Optic Communication Cable
Product Overview
- The Foxboro P0914QG, identified as the BCOM17, is a Fiber Optic Communication Cable from the Invensys I/A Series (now part of Schneider Electric's EcoStruxure Foxboro DCS). This cable is designed to provide high-speed, reliable, and noise-immune data communication between I/A Series control system components, such as Fieldbus Modules (FBMs), control processors, or network interfaces. It is used in industrial automation applications, including oil and gas, chemical processing, and power generation, to ensure robust connectivity in electrically noisy or long-distance environments.
