Product Description:
The X20CA0E61.00020 is a pre-assembled Ethernet patch cable supplied by B&R Automation for the X20 Fieldbus Input Output Modules series. The assembly links I/O slices to upstream switches or controllers inside distributed automation nodes, allowing reliable Gigabit communication without on-site crimping. Its short form factor suits compact cabinets where excess slack is unwanted, and the molded plugs ensure the shielding concept of the X20 backplane is extended through to the network infrastructure.
This patch cord measures 0.2 m between the two ends, so it can sit entirely within one local enclosure. The copper core arrangement follows a 4x2x26 AWG cross-section that presents eight stranded conductors for full-duplex data pairs while keeping flexibility high. Overall diameter is 6.7 mm, and the permitted dynamic bend radius is at least eight times that outer dimension, preventing micro-crack formation during routing. The molded coupling nut and over-mold achieve an IP65 rating, protecting the plug interface against sprayed coolant or dust in typical machine cells. Conductor resistance is specified at ≤145 Ω/km at 20 °C, limiting ohmic losses over the short distance. For installation that requires motion, the cable can be handled in ambient conditions from -10 to 60 °C. Shield coverage reaches 85%, pair twisting maintains impedance, and the mass is 0.058 kg per meter, making cable chains lighter.
Each end carries RJ45 connectors wired 1:1, so no crossover is needed for standard switches. The construction supports a continuous operating potential of a maximum of 125 V between conductors and shields, and insulation integrity is verified by a 1000 V wire-to-wire test. Electrical design class is Category 5, enabling deterministic transmission at 10/100/1000 Mbit/s for real-time Ethernet protocols used by the X20 platform. Minimum insulation resistance is 5 GΩ per kilometer at 20 °C, ensuring negligible leakage currents even in humid production areas. The four balanced pairs are individually and overall shielded, maintaining signal quality in high-frequency drive cabinets.
