Product Description

The ZK1090-6161-0300 Beckhoff cable uses an M12 installation size for both connectors, providing a standardized 12mm diameter plug. This compact, durable size is widely used in industrial automation, ensuring compatibility with EtherCAT systems and offering a secure threaded connection that resists loosening from vibrations. The cable has four conductors, each with a 0.34 mm² cross-sectional area, (AWG22). This layout optimizes data transmission while maintaining resilience against bending and wear, which is essential for applications involving repeated movement, such as in drag-chain setups. The AWG22 specification also supports adequate current-carrying capacity, ensuring stable connectivity.

The cable features a length of 30-meters and is well-suited for environments where flexibility and durability are paramount. The cable features a 4-pin male plug on both ends, that is coded D. This coding ensures that the cable maintains proper orientation during installation, preventing misconnection and ensuring that data is transmitted correctly. The 4-pin configuration allows for efficient data transfer and power supply, making it ideal for devices that require robust communication. Both connectors deliver reliable data transmission since they are effectively shielded to prevent electromagnetic noise from disrupting the integrity of the data being transmitted.

The ZK1090-6161-0300 features a durable PUR covering that provides the cable with ample protection against mechanical stressors and environmental factors. The polyurethane material is designed to promote durability by reducing wear and tear on the cable in industrial conditions including those where the environment may be challenging. This cable is easy to manage in complex installations since it comes in a visible green that stands out even in installations with numerous cables. Users get a year’s worth of warranty from Wake Industrial on purchase of this Beckhoff EtherCAT cable.
