Product Description:
The 5CAUSB.0018-00 is a USB interface cable produced by B&R Automation for the 5CA HMI Cables series. It links operator panels to controllers in industrial automation cells used for packaging, assembly, and inspection tasks and carries data with 5 V bus power through one molded assembly. That combined design simplifies panel wiring and supports stable communication between the HMI and the host PLC.
This cable uses 24, 28 AWG conductors, which balance current capacity with flexibility for routing through narrow conduits. Compliance with USB 2.0 supports transfer rates up to 480 Mbit/s for screen updates and firmware downloads. Shielding extends over the entire cable, and the USB Type A male to USB Type B male connector pair allows direct connection without adapters. A maximum outer diameter of 5 mm helps conserve space inside control enclosures and cable chains in tight routing paths.
A minimum bend radius of 100 mm helps protect the internal twisted pairs from fatigue when the cable is routed around cabinet corners or moving gantries. Its low mass of 80 g reduces strain on cable supports and moving carriage assemblies during repeated motion. The PVC jacket is beige, which makes the cable easier to distinguish from darker power wiring in mixed-voltage troughs and during routine maintenance inside crowded cabinets.
