Product Description:

The 5CAUSB.0075-00 cable is manufactured by B&R Automation as part of the 5CA HMI Cables series. It serves as a dedicated USB link between B&R operator interfaces and host controllers, allowing touchscreens, memory devices, and service tools to communicate with the PLC reliably. Screened conductors and molded strain reliefs help maintain signal quality in industrial settings exposed to vibration, electromagnetic noise, and repeated machine motion.

The assembly is supplied in a calibrated length of 7.5 m +75 mm, giving predictable slack for routing through pendant arms or along moving machine sections. Data transfer follows the USB 2.0 standard, supporting fast communication while remaining backward compatible with older 1.1 devices. It uses a USB Type A male to USB Type B male connection, so the host port and panel receptacle can mate directly without adapters. The power and signal pairs use 24 and 28 AWG stranded conductors, which balance flexibility with current-carrying capacity. An overall diameter of 4.6 mm helps the cable pass through narrow separators and compact gland openings.

A minimum bend radius of 55 mm reduces conductor stress during continuous motion and tight cabinet turns. Full-cable shielding improves resistance to radiated electrical interference commonly generated by drives and contactors. The gray outer jacket matches common control-panel wiring aesthetics and adds abrasion resistance where the cable contacts tray or arm surfaces. With a mass of 390 g, the assembly adds little load to cantilevered HMI arms while retaining the stiffness needed for repeated plug-in cycles.

Wake Industrial offers a 1-year warranty on each cable. Same-day shipping is available for urgent orders. Quoted pricing remains valid for 30 days total.
