Process I/O Wiring Solution – Honeywell 900RTC-3450 | HC900 Hybrid Controller Series
The Honeywell 900RTC-3450 is a factory-engineered 16.4 ft (5 m) Remote Termination Panel (RTP) cable designed for 32 digital input or 16 digital output I/O modules in the HC900 Hybrid Controller platform. It provides a direct, plug-and-play signal path between HC900 I/O modules and field-side Remote Termination Panels, eliminating custom wiring and reducing commissioning time in process automation environments.
At Konmask.com, we supply this cable as a verified OEM component — fully traceable, tested, and ready for immediate deployment in new installations or as a drop-in replacement for aging infrastructure.
Where This Product Is Used
The 900RTC-3450 is specified by control engineers across industries where the HC900 platform manages critical process loops:
- Oil & Gas Upstream/Midstream: Wellhead automation, separator control, and pipeline SCADA panels where DI/DO signal density is high and cable routing space is constrained.
- Chemical & Petrochemical Plants: Reactor interlocks, valve position feedback, and pump status monitoring wired through HC900 I/O racks to RTP terminal blocks.
- Power Generation: Auxiliary system control (cooling water, fuel handling) using HC900 hybrid controllers with RTP-based field termination.
- Water & Wastewater Treatment: Pump station automation and SCADA integration where HC900 controllers manage discrete I/O from remote field panels.
- Pharmaceutical Manufacturing: Batch process control systems requiring validated, OEM-traceable cabling for FDA/GMP compliance documentation.
- Pulp & Paper / Food & Beverage: High-cycle discrete I/O applications where cable integrity over years of operation is non-negotiable.
If your facility runs an HC900 controller with 32DI or 16DO modules and uses Remote Termination Panels, the 900RTC-3450 is the correct cable for your 5-meter reach requirement.

Why Engineers Specify This Model
- Exact Length for Standard Cabinet Layouts: 16.4 ft (5 m) is the standard reach for HC900 I/O racks mounted in 19″ or 24″ enclosures with RTP panels on adjacent DIN rails — no cutting, no splicing.
- 32DI / 16DO Density in One Cable: Handles the full channel count of HC900 high-density discrete I/O modules in a single, organized run — reducing cable tray congestion.
- Plug-and-Play Commissioning: Factory-terminated and keyed connectors prevent mis-wiring at both the module and RTP ends, cutting loop-check time significantly.
- OEM Signal Integrity: Shielded construction maintains signal fidelity in electrically noisy industrial environments (VFD-heavy panels, motor control centers).
- Lifecycle Continuity: Using OEM cables ensures compatibility with HC900 firmware updates and hardware revisions without re-validation of field wiring.
Complete System Bill of Materials
The 900RTC-3450 is one component in a complete HC900 I/O termination assembly. A typical BOM for a 32DI channel group includes:
- 900RTC-3450 — This cable (16.4 ft, 32DI/16DO)
- HC900 32-Channel Digital Input Module (e.g., 900G32-0101) — I/O module in the HC900 rack
- HC900 Remote Termination Panel (32DI) — Field-side terminal block panel
- HC900 I/O Expansion Rack — If I/O count exceeds base rack capacity
- 900RTC-3410 — Alternative 10 ft cable for shorter reach requirements

How to Source This Part
- Confirm your HC900 I/O module type — Verify you have a 32DI or 16DO module requiring RTP termination
- Confirm cable reach — Measure the distance from your I/O module to the RTP panel; 16.4 ft (5 m) covers most standard cabinet configurations. For shorter runs, consider the 900RTC-3410 (10 ft)
- Check quantity — One cable per I/O module slot requiring RTP termination
- Submit your inquiry — Email support@konmask.com with your PO or project BOM for lead time and pricing confirmation
- Receive & verify — Inspect part label against your PO upon receipt; contact us immediately if any discrepancy
Application-Specific FAQ
Q: Is the 900RTC-3450 compatible with both 32DI and 16DO HC900 modules?
A: Yes. The cable is designed for HC900 I/O modules with 32 digital input or 16 digital output channel configurations. Verify your specific module part number against the HC900 I/O Module Selection Guide.
Q: Can I use this cable with HC900 analog I/O modules?
A: No. RTP cables are channel-count and module-type specific. Analog I/O modules use different RTP cables. Contact us with your analog module part number for the correct cable.
Q: What is the difference between 900RTC-3450 and 900RTC-3410?
A: The primary difference is cable length — 900RTC-3450 is 16.4 ft (5 m); 900RTC-3410 is approximately 10 ft (3 m). Both serve the same 32DI/16DO module types. Choose based on the physical distance in your cabinet layout.
Q: Can the cable be extended or spliced in the field?
A: Honeywell does not recommend field splicing of RTP cables as it can introduce signal integrity issues and void system warranty. If 16.4 ft is insufficient, consult Honeywell for extended-reach solutions.
Q: Do you provide documentation for pharmaceutical validation (IQ/OQ)?
A: Yes. We can provide certificate of conformance, packing list, and OEM label photographs to support IQ documentation. Contact support@konmask.com with your validation requirements.
Q: What is the lead time for the 900RTC-3450?
A: Lead time varies by stock availability. Contact us at support@konmask.com or +0086 19859288691 for current availability and expedited shipping options.
