Product Description:

The ZK1090-9191-0015 is a pre-terminated motor cable manufactured by Beckhoff in its ZK Motor Cables series. It links EtherCAT or other RS-485-based drives to servo motors, carrying both power and differential feedback signals in a single screened jacket. By supplying factory-installed male and female connectors, the cable reduces assembly errors and speeds machine installation in industrial automation cells.

With a 1.50 m overall length, the assembly suits short-run servo loops while limiting excess capacitance. Inside, a 4 x 2 x AWG26 twisted-pair layout provides balanced transmission, and the characteristic impedance of 100 Ω ±15 Ω aligns with EtherCAT and other 100-ohm systems to help control signal reflections. Each conductor has a 0.14 mm² cross-section, supporting application current without significant voltage drop. The plug molded onto the drive side uses a RJ45 interface with an 8-pin arrangement and is rated for at least 750 mating cycles. Overall loop resistance is 280 Ω/km; over this short cable, that amounts to roughly 0.42 Ω, which helps maintain feedback accuracy. A PUR outer jacket withstands oil splash and tight bending, and the 5.9 mm ±0.2 mm diameter passes easily through existing energy-chain separators.

Electrically, the cable core insulation is rated for 60 V, matching the low-voltage drive supply present on many Beckhoff motor terminals, while the RJ45 plug housing carries a separate 160 V rating to tolerate transient surges from the controller. Continuous load capacity reaches 1 A at 50 °C, and the PUR insulation plus 90 % braid and foil shielding help limit crosstalk in densely wired enclosures. An IP20 protection rating classifies the interface for use inside control cabinets where sealing against moisture is not required. This makes the assembly better suited to protected indoor installations than to exposed washdown areas.
