Product Description:

Beckhoff manufactures the CU8890-0000. With a Type-B connection and a Universal Serial Bus 2.0 interface, the CU8890-0000 EtherCAT junction is designed to facilitate digital communication. The junction itself limits throughput to 54 megabits per second, despite USB 2.0's theoretical maximum data transfer speeds of 480 megabits per second. This limitation directly affects how easily it can be integrated into systems that need regulated data capacity. Device deployment in systems where space and wiring complexity must be kept to a minimum is made simpler by the simultaneous delivery of power via the USB interface at a regulated 5-volt direct current, which does away with the requirement for separate power arrangements. Maintaining signal integrity and lowering system bulk are two obvious benefits of using a single connection for both data and power.

Reverse SMA connectors are used in antenna terminals to enable wireless communication; this decision reflects the need for mechanical stability and low insertion loss in radio frequency applications. The device supports modulation methods such as Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum and Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing to enable robust data transmission under a variety of wireless situations, and it conforms to IEEE 802.11b and 802.11g standards. The CU8890-0000 operates in the well-recognized 2.4 GHz ISM band and supports communication across 11 distinct channels, each with a bandwidth footprint of 22 megahertz and a five megahertz separation. In environments where wireless conditions are subject to fluctuations, the system's built-in dynamic rate scaling ensures the most efficient use of available bandwidth without requiring manual configuration, allowing speeds to vary from 1 to 54 megabits per second based on signal quality. This promotes consistent network performance.

The CU8890-0000’s operating temperature range of 0 to 55°C means no thermal stress on internal semiconductor structures, so environmental resilience is one of its key features. A -25 to +70°C survival range covers storage and transportation requirements, so the unit is resilient during non-operational times. 95% relative humidity without condensation is a must to prevent corrosion-related failures. The device is 35mm wide, 98mm high, and 77mm deep when mounted on DIN rails. It’s in an IP20 enclosure, which means it’s intended for use in clean, controlled industrial environments and offers minimal protection against solid objects. The specification of every parameter shows that the CU8890-0000 can work smoothly and long term in complex automation systems.
