ABB NKTL01-3 Coax Termination Cable

Configured to connect ABB NKCL coax cable to ABB NTCL, the ABB NKTL01-3 (NKTL01-3 Coax Termination Cable) provides a passive coaxial termination and interconnection path. The specified cable length is 3 ft, with the product identified by ABB as a coax termination cable with PVC construction.

Hardware Specifications

Coaxial Termination and Signal Path

The NKTL01-3 provides the physical connection between an NKCL coaxial cable and an NTCL interface. Its function is limited to cable termination and interconnection; no active signal processing, power conversion, or protocol conversion is specified.

The supplied ABB description identifies the cable as a PVC coax termination cable with a 3 ft length. Electrical performance values such as characteristic impedance, attenuation, shielding specification, and maximum operating frequency are not provided in the supplied source and should be verified against the applicable ABB cable documentation before system-level signal analysis.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What equipment does the NKTL01-3 connect?

A: The NKTL01-3 connects an NKCL coax cable to an NTCL connection point.

Q: Does the NKTL01-3 require a power supply?

A: No separate power supply is specified. The part is a passive coaxial termination cable.

Q: Is the operating temperature range specified?

A: No operating temperature value is provided in the supplied ABB data. The installation environment should therefore be checked against the applicable ABB documentation.

Field Installation Guidelines

• Verify that the cable identification matches NKTL01-3 before installation.
• Confirm that the NKCL coax cable and NTCL connection point are compatible with the specified termination arrangement.
• Route the coaxial cable separately from high-current power conductors where practical to reduce electromagnetic coupling.
• Avoid excessive bending, crushing, or mechanical loading of the cable and termination points.
• Maintain the cable shielding and termination arrangement specified by the associated ABB system documentation.
• Inspect connectors and termination interfaces for contamination, mechanical damage, or incomplete engagement before commissioning.
• Do not assign an operating temperature, impedance, attenuation value, or electrical rating that is not confirmed by the applicable ABB documentation.
• The supplied source lists dimensional values of 45.72 mm x 157.48 mm x 236.22 mm and a cable diameter of 0.04572 mm; these values should be verified against the original ABB mechanical drawing if enclosure or routing clearances depend on them.
