Product Description:
The X20CA0E61.0005 is an Ethernet patch cable manufactured by B&R Automation for use with the X20 Fieldbus Input/Output Modules series. As a prefabricated accessory, the cable forms the physical layer between individual I/O slices or between an X20 station and a standard network switch. Its purpose in industrial automation is to convey high-speed fieldbus traffic while sustaining mechanical flexibility within control cabinets and on moving machine elements. Factory-crimped connectors eliminate manual terminations and help preserve signal integrity during repetitive plug cycles.
It is classified as Category 5, allowing full-duplex transmission at 10/100/1000 Mbit/s over its 0.5 m length. The cable uses four twisted pairs arranged as 4 × 2 × 0.14 mm² and has an overall diameter of 6.7 mm ± 0.2 mm, allowing compact routing where installation space is limited. The molded plug set provides an RJ45-to-RJ45 interface, so the cable can connect directly to standard X20 bus couplers, switches, or panel jacks without adapters. Tinned-copper 26/7 AWG strands provide the flexibility and current-carrying capacity required for the cable. Polyethylene pair insulation and a PVC outer jacket maintain electrical isolation while withstanding continuous movement.
This wiring accessory withstands service conditions common to industrial plants. Conductor resistance remains at ≤145 Ω/km at 20 °C, while insulation resistance is at least 5 GΩ/km, minimizing electrical leakage through the cable. The braid and foil shield provides 85% optical coverage, improving noise immunity when variable-frequency drives or welders operate nearby. During permanent installation, the cable tolerates ambient temperatures from -40 to 80 °C, and it remains flexible in movable carriers from -10 to 60 °C. The cable withstands a wire-to-wire test potential of 1000 V and supports a continuous operating voltage of 125 V. An abrasion-resistant outer sheath supports drag-chain use, while the maintained pair geometry keeps impedance stable during movement.
