RMK02.1-LWL-EAB

Product Description:

The RMK02.1-LWL-EAB is a fiber optic module from the RECO Drive Modules series made by Bosch Rexroth Indramat. Designed specifically for rack mounting inside standard IndraDrive enclosures, this module fits tightly into modular drive systems where fiber optic communication is preferred. Weight comes in at around 0.5 kg, which keeps things light for multi-unit racks. It includes a dedicated EAB connection and runs on a proprietary Rexroth Fiber Optic Bus, allowing data transmission with low interference and fast signal speed.

The communication interface used is LWL, meaning it handles all signals via fiber optic lines instead of traditional copper connections. That cuts down noise and improves transmission over long distances inside drive systems. Typical supply voltage sits at 24 VDC, with stable input expected during operation. This module holds an IP20 protection rating, which keeps out fingers and larger particles but requires enclosed cabinet use in industrial settings. Operating temperature ranges from 0°C to +45°C, with safe storage between -25°C and +85°C when powered down.

Form factor matches standard IndraDrive rack dimensions, so swapping or integrating it into existing builds doesn’t require modification. Compatibility is specific to IndraDrive systems, making it a smart choice where those controls are already installed. This is not a standalone unit—it works as part of a broader setup where signal clarity and data consistency are important. Used in automation lines, robotics, and synchronized machinery, it plays a background role but a critical one. Communication doesn’t drop, signals stay stable, and the module keeps doing what it’s built for—quiet, fiber-based control transmission with solid performance over time. Assembly and cabling are simple for technicians familiar with Rexroth racks. No surprises, just clean installation and steady linkup.
