Product Description

The C9900-K626, manufactured by Beckhoff, is a kit designed to facilitate extended connections between a PC and various Beckhoff devices, such as the CP29xx-0000, CPX29xx-0000, and CP69xx-xxxx-0010. This kit is crucial for setting up industrial automation systems where the PC and the controlled device might be situated at a distance from each other. At the heart of this kit lies the CU8801 USB-to-USB-E-2.0 converter. This converter is critical in ensuring signal compatibility between the PC and the connected devices. USB-E-2.0, an industrial extension of the USB 2.0 standard, is specifically designed to handle the longer cable lengths and harsher environments often encountered in industrial settings. The converter's ability to be mounted on a DIN rail provides installation flexibility, allowing it to be seamlessly integrated into existing industrial control cabinets and setups.

The C9900-K626 includes a 20-meter DVI cable and a 20-meter CAT 5 cable. These long cables are essential for maintaining high-quality video signals (DVI) and reliable data transmission (CAT 5) over longer distances. This is a common requirement in industrial environments where components may be spread over a large area. The considerable length of these cables offers significant flexibility in system design and installation, reducing the constraints on where the PC and devices can be positioned. The kit also includes a 1-meter USB cable for installations where the PC and device are nearby. This shorter cable provides a practical solution for situations where the extended reach of the 20-meter cables is unnecessary, minimizing cable clutter and simplifying the connection.

The C9900-K626 connection kit, which includes the CU8801 USB-to-USB-E-2.0 converter, the 20-meter DVI and CAT 5 cables, and the 1-meter USB cable, provides a comprehensive solution for connecting Beckhoff industrial automation components. Its design addresses the specific needs of industrial environments, where signal compatibility, cable length, and flexible installation options are critical factors for reliable and efficient operation. Wake Industrial provides a one-year warranty upon purchase, offering customers peace of mind.
