by Beckhoff
The Beckhoff CP2918-0010 is a panel PC from the CP Panel PC Systems series, designed by Beckhoff for demanding industrial automation tasks. Featuring an 18.5-inch multi-finger touch screen with a resolution of 1366 x 768, it delivers crisp visuals and intuitive gesture control. Equipped with CP-Link 4 connection technology, this unit extends display and USB signals up to 100 meters from the host PC over a single Cat.6A cable. Its primary function is to provide seamless transmission of image and touch data in remote or centralized control rooms, offering robust performance in industrial environments.
The CP2918-0010 supports high-speed USB 2.0 data transmission at 100 Mbit/s alongside DVI video signals, ensuring low-latency interaction and high-quality display output. It includes an RJ45 interface for CP-Link 4 and two USB 2.0 ports for peripheral connectivity. The aluminum housing with a glass front provides structural rigidity while protecting internal components. Installation is simplified by pull-out clamping levers, eliminating loose parts and reducing panel cut-out time. With a 24 V DC power supply, the system can operate with integrated or separate power inputs, depending on the transmitter module used.
Engineered for industrial resilience, the panel operates in temperatures from 0 to 50 °C and features an IP65 protection rating on the front side and IP20 at the rear, safeguarding against dust and moisture. Its display can be mounted vertically or horizontally to suit varied machine layouts. The multi-touch screen accommodates multiple simultaneous inputs, boosting operator efficiency. By consolidating video and touch signals over a single cable, the CP2918-0010 reduces wiring complexity and installation costs. Its sturdy aluminum enclosure and high ingress protection ensure long-term durability, making it an ideal solution for automation systems seeking reliable, high-performance human-machine interfaces.
