Inverters with Fronius Datamanager or Fronius Com Card, DATCOM components with ex-
clients
ternal housing or other DATCOM components will hereinafter be referred to as Fronius So-

Fronius Solar Net
The data connection for the Fronius Solar Net client is a 1:1 connection using 8-pin data
client cabling
cables and RJ 45 plugs.
Requirements for
Shielded CAT5 (new) and CAT5e (old) cables compliant with ISO 11801 and EN50173
the Solar Net data
must be used for the Fronius Solar Net client cabling. Other cables are not permitted.

The shield must be crimped on to a CAT5-compatible shielded plug.
Due to the fact that the wires in Ethernet cables are twisted, you must make sure the twist-
ed pairs of wires are assigned correctly for cabling in accordance with EIA/TIA-568A:

Make sure that the wires are assigned correctly.
When setting up an independent ground connection (e.g. in patch panels), make sure
that the shield is grounded on one side of the cable only.
