Product Description:

The RKB0044 is a control cable manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for the RKB Control Cables series. Designed for industrial automation networks, it links drives, remote I/O, and motion controllers, delivering deterministic communication without onsite termination. The cable arrives pre-assembled, enabling rapid installation in cable tracks, cabinets, and machine frames.

One performance marker is the service life of 3000000 bending cycles; this figure shows the jacket and conductors can flex three million times before fatigue becomes critical in continuous-motion drag chains. Data transport adheres to the Sercos III bus standard, so shielding and impedance support cycle-synchronous drive telegrams. Classified as CAT5e, the pair geometry sustains 100 Mbit/s Ethernet with minimal return loss. Factory termination on an M12 D-Coded 4-Pin plug at the drive side shortens commissioning and maintains vibration-proof locking.

At the control-cabinet end, an RJ45 connector mates with standard switches, completing a Basic build that complements the Ready-Made concept. Installers must route the cable within a dynamic bend limit of 7.5xD and a static minimum of 5xD; remaining inside these radii prevents conductor work-hardening and preserves signal integrity. The cable variant is specified as Ethernet, so controlled twist length and impedance balance keep jitter low even when the harness accelerates rapidly.

Wake Industrial can arrange same-day shipping to minimize scheduling delays. A comprehensive 1-year warranty is included with every RKB0044 cable. Customers may use the free chat tool for general questions about type codes or error diagnostics before ordering.
