What It Does

This cable is used to transmit high-speed motion control signals between:

• Kinetix servo drive
• Motion controller / PLC
• Servo feedback or communication network

It ensures:

• Real-time motion synchronization
• Precise servo positioning
• Low-noise communication (fiber optic = no EMI interference)

Key Features

• High-speed SERCOS communication
• Fiber optic transmission (immune to electrical noise)
• Factory pre-assembled connectors (no field termination needed)
• Designed for industrial motion control systems
• Stable long-distance signal transmission (15m version)

Advantages

• Extremely resistant to electromagnetic interference (EMI)
• High reliability for servo synchronization
• Plug-and-play industrial design
• Reduces wiring errors (pre-terminated cable)
• Essential for accurate multi-axis motion control

Applications

• CNC machines
• Robotics systems
• Packaging machinery
• High-speed conveyor systems
• Kinetix servo drive networks
• Multi-axis motion control systems

Important Precautions

•  
• Must match correct Kinetix / SERCOS system version
• Do not bend excessively (fiber optic damage risk)
• Connector cleanliness is critical (dust can cause signal loss)
• Mixing cable revisions may cause:
  • communication faults
  • servo drive errors
  • motion loss
• Always verify:
  • exact cable series
  • drive compatibility
  • motor/feedback system type
