The Bosch Rexroth Indramat RKG4204 is part of the RKG Encoder Cables series and is constructed using REG0748 bulk cable with a jacket made of PUR. This encoder cable features RGS1001/C01 and RGS1002/C01 connectors, each with 10 pins, and supports a bending cycle of 5 million with a dynamic bending radius of 7.5 times the cable diameter.

Product Description:
The RKG4204 is an encoder cable produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat within the RKG Encoder Cables series. It carries differential position signals and auxiliary supply lines between rotating feedback devices and drive controllers, sustaining reliable data transmission in continuously moving machine axes.
For motion applications with tight energy-chain loops, the cable endures 5 million bending cycles, indicating long service life under repetitive flexing. A diameter of 8.5 mm helps designers allocate conduit space while maintaining the required characteristic impedance. The outer sheath is a tough PUR jacket, offering abrasion resistance and, because the compound is halogen-free, reducing toxic fume risk during a fire. Minimum dynamic curvature is limited to a radius of 7.5×D, so chains and guides must respect that value to prevent conductor fatigue. The core material corresponds to the bulk designation REG0748, ensuring compatibility with other cables from the same family.
Signal integrity is supported by the twisted-pair layout defined as 4P0.25 + 2×0.5, separating four 0.25 mm² data pairs from two 0.5 mm² power leads. One end terminates in connector RGS1001/C01, the other in RGS1002/C01; both molded plugs use keyed shells to prevent mis-mating. Each housing contains 10 pins, so feedback channels, temperature sensors, and supply conductors occupy dedicated contacts without multiplexing. A power-wire cross-section of 0.5 mm² limits voltage drop on low-current auxiliary lines, and installations with little movement may apply the smaller static bend guideline of 5×D.
Wake Industrial can arrange same-day shipping for urgent orders, keeps quotations valid for 30 days, and offers a free chat tool where users can ask about fault codes or type-code details before buying.
