Product Description
The ZK7000-0105-0100 is an EtherCAT P cable that combines data communication and power supply into a single, streamlined cable. It is a Beckhoff cable that allows devices connected to the EtherCAT network to receive both the electrical power and data necessary for communication over the same cable. The cable’s ethernet cross section is 1 x 4 x 0.34 mm², which consists of four conductors that facilitate reliable data transmission at high speeds. The 0.34 mm² wire gauge ensures a balance between flexibility and durability, allowing the cable to maintain performance even in dynamic environments. This design minimizes signal interference, ensuring efficient communication between devices on the EtherCAT network.
The cable is optimized for use in drag chains, with remarkable flexibility and ample strength to withstand rigorous movements. The durable construction of the cable ensures that the cable maintains its integrity and performance even after millions of bending cycles. It comes with a 6.5 mm ± 0.2 mm outer cable diameter that allows the cable to fit into standard cable channels and connectors. The diameter also helps maintain flexibility during operation, allowing for smooth movement. For further flexibility, the cable is designed with a PUR jacket on the outside that effectively seals the cable against contaminants such as oils and chemicals. This promotes durability without impacting the flexibility of the cable.
The ZK7000-0105-0100’s connectors include an M8 plug connector with a male contact type. This connector offers 4-pin positions and utilizes P-coded coding, ensuring secure and accurate connections. The second connector on this cable is an M8 flange connector that also comes with 4-pin positions and a female contact type. Both connectors incorporate shielding to prevent interference, maintaining high performance in signal transmission.
