There is just as much shielding inside Schneider, Outback or most any
electronics that are designed for networking. It is Engineered in. Canbus,

can use shielded ends but there is NO shielding in place for the connector
inside the Schneider components. The most important thing is either
enclosing the com cables inside the shielding tin inside the PDP or wire
the cables outside of the devices. They (Schneider) had suggested 6' cables
there are folks that say that the supplied cables from Sch. are of poor
quality. I have the config tool that in these situations really does help,
having my own SCP, installing updated firmware, turning everything off &
waiting few mins. + unplugging border-left:#1010ff 2px solid;

So you terminate the shield somehow outside of the RJ45
connector?

cable swap and reconfiguration that fixed it I also was more careful to
route the xanbus cables away from the batter/inverter cables - thinking
that perhaps induction was the culprit. As I have an rj45 crimp tool and
some shielded CAT5e in the truck I think I'll just make up my own cables in
the future after spending way more time than that troubleshooting.
Best
of luck!

I tried
swapping the cables for the XW and MPPT. After reboot the XW continued to
show up on the SCP but the MPPT did not. I didn't have another cable, but
this suggests the cable is not the problem. I didn't think to change the
order, however.

I had a SCP xanbus system once that
refused to show a component - The fix was replacing the cheap ethernet
wires that schneider provided with better cables and/or changing the order
of the components in the series comm string. not sure which did it as I did
both changes at once but I do suspect those white cables.
Best,
Jeff

I am working with a client
(not my install) with a XW6048 and MPPT 80 600 with a SCP. The SCP is not
showing the MPPT in the setup menu. I am able to access the system settings
and XW configuration, but not the MPPT settings. It is connected via Xanbus
in this manner: SCP -> MPPT -> XW So the MPPT is in the middle and is
passing through the XW signal just fine. The MPPT also has a red error
light illuminated, but it is charging the battery (positive current
measured via clamp meter). Any ideas? Thanks, Jason Szumlanski
