ZK2000-6100-0030
The ZK2000-6100-0030 cable by Beckhoff is a high-performance solution in the ZK Motor Cables series, engineered for robust data transmission in industrial automation environments. This specialized Ethernet cable features an Installation Size Head A of M12 and an Installation Size Head B that is open end, providing versatile connectivity options. It utilizes a Connector Type of plug with a Contact Type of male and a Number Of Positions (face) Head A of 4-pin, ensuring secure locking and precise alignment. The cable measures Length of 3.00 m with a durable Material Jacket composed of PUR (polyurethane) in a uniform Jacket Color of black, matching the Body Color Head A and providing consistent aesthetics. Designed to integrate seamlessly into automated control systems, it supports an industry-standard Coding of A-coded for high-speed Ethernet communication.
In performance-critical applications, the ZK2000-6100-0030 excels due to its Cross-section of 4 x 0.34 mm² (AWG 22) conductors, facilitating low-loss signal integrity over extended runs. The cable is specifically rated as drag-chain suitable, enabling continuous flexing and dynamic motion without degradation. With no shielding, this design offers a streamlined profile and reduced weight while maintaining reliable data throughput. The four Number Of Positions (face) Head B wires at the open end allow direct termination or integration with custom connectors, enhancing installation flexibility. This configuration supports demanding industrial Ethernet protocols and ensures minimal crosstalk and attenuation over the entire length.
Engineered for durability and ease of integration, the ZK2000-6100-0030 withstands mechanical stress, abrasion, and common industrial environmental factors. The polyurethane jacket provides exceptional resistance to oils, chemicals, and temperature variations, ensuring long-term performance in harsh settings. Its unshielded, yet robust, construction simplifies routing within cable trays, drag chains, and control cabinets. Beckhoff’s meticulous design and adherence to quality standards deliver a reliable interface between drives, controllers, and peripheral devices. Ideal for machine building, robotics, packaging equipment, and process automation, this cable streamlines installation, reduces maintenance, and supports the high-availability demands of modern production systems.
