The B & R Automation X20CA0E61.00025 Ethernet connection cable is a high-performance interconnection solution in the CM16 Motor Cables series, engineered for reliable data transmission in harsh industrial environments. This CAT5e, Shielded cable supports 100 Mbps (Fast Ethernet) communication and is designed for fixed installation with a robust structure that ensures signal integrity. The assembly features M12 connectors, offering a secure interface for motor control modules and automation devices. With a total Length of 25 m, the cable provides ample reach for complex machinery layouts without compromising electrical performance. Overall, the X20CA0E61.00025 offers a balance of flexibility, mechanical strength, and industrial-grade protection for advanced automation systems.
Detailed construction is reflected in its precise technical specifications. The cable uses a Conductor Cross-section of 0.25 mm² (26 AWG) in a 4 x 2 conductor arrangement, insulated with polyethylene (PE) for optimized dielectric properties. The outer sheath is a durable PVC jacket in black (RAL 9005), with an overall Cable Diameter of 6.2 mm providing a compact profile. It exhibits a nominal Impedance of 100 Ω ±15% to maintain consistent characteristic impedance and minimize reflection losses. At each end, it integrates M12 4-pin male straight and M12 4-pin female straight connectors with gold-plated contacts for low contact resistance. These elements are all certified to IP67 when mated, ensuring ingress protection against dust and water.
Operational performance focuses on mechanical resilience and environmental tolerance. The cable achieves a minimum Bending Radius of 7.5 x cable diameter under fixed installation, preventing conductor fatigue and signal degradation. It operates reliably across a temperature span from -20°C (minimum) to +60°C (maximum), making it suitable for indoor and moderately demanding outdoor settings. A dual-layer shielding design—combining overlapping aluminum-clad foil and a tinned copper braid—provides comprehensive EMI protection against high- and low-frequency interference. This shielding, together with flame-retardant materials compliant with RoHS 2011/65/EU, safeguards continuous data streams in electromagnetic environments.
Integration into automated systems is streamlined via the standardized M12 interface, which aligns with CM16 motor modules and controllers from B & R Automation. The cable’s industrial-grade protection and fast Ethernet capability make it ideal for servo drives, programmable logic controllers, and fieldbus gateways. Its 25 m reach accommodates distributed architectures in manufacturing cells, robotics, and material handling systems. As part of the CM16 Motor Cables series, the X20CA0E61.00025 delivers consistent performance, simplified installation, and reduced downtime in precision automation applications.
