Internal Product Review
The ZK4500-8027-0080 is a well-engineered Beckhoff motor cable with a TPU jacket and bare copper conductors. Power handling is especially impressive for motion applications, with a 10 mm² power cross-section and a 1.50 mm² brake cross-section. A 5 million max cycle count is a standout specification for long-term cable performance.

Product Description:
The ZK4500-8027-0080 motor cable is manufactured by Beckhoff for its ZK Motor Cables series. Intended for servo-axis installation, the product combines power, brake, signal, and Ethernet-based data conductors so that a single line can connect a Beckhoff drive to its matching motor. By bundling these transmission paths in one assembly, the cable reduces separate cable runs, keeps routing more orderly inside moving equipment, and supports coordinated motion in industrial automation. This layout is especially useful in compact machine sections where space around the axis is limited.
At a fixed factory length of 8.00 m, the cable reaches between cabinet and motor without field splices. The power cores have a cross-section of 10 mm², which supports current delivery to medium-frame servomotors while helping limit voltage drop over the run. Brake conductors are sized at 1.50 mm², making them suitable for the intermittent current peaks needed to release or engage a holding brake. Control wiring for encoders or sensors uses an AWG22 signal pair that helps preserve data integrity across the full cable length. All of these elements terminate in an M40 Head A circular connector, so installation centers on a single main connection point. Head A supports 500 mating cycles and includes separate power, signal, and data contacts, while the bare copper conductors provide stable electrical conductivity.
Dynamic routing is addressed by a maximum travel speed of 4 m/s and a bending life of 5 million cycles, which suits repeated motion in energy chains and robotic arms during normal operation. The outer jacket is TPU, giving the cable abrasion resistance while keeping it flexible during startup in cooler conditions. A linear weight of 760 kg/km helps when calculating cable load in vertical runs and moving harness systems. On the device end, Head B provides a 4-pin interface on a 10.16 mm pitch for drive voltage, and Head C uses a 5-pin feedback plug on a 3.50 mm pitch. These secondary connectors separate power and low-level feedback circuits at the motor end and complete the cable layout in a clear way.
