Product Description:

The 107865-0100 cable assembly is produced by Danaher as part of the Dynapar Encoder Cables series. Designed for industrial automation, the product links incremental or absolute encoders to motion controllers, ensuring that position data moves from the sensing head to the control cabinet without loss of signal quality. By matching the connector used on Dynapar feedback devices, the assembly simplifies installation and maintains the electrical characteristics required for parallel push-pull data streams.

At the encoder end, the assembly provides a female MS connector that mates directly with compatible Dynapar transducers. This circular interface carries a full set of signals through a 17-pin insert, allowing parallel word transmission, power, and reference lines to pass through one coupling. Conductors terminate at the opposite end as flying leads, so each core can connect to screw terminals or solder pads inside a drive enclosure. A driver stage that uses parallel push-pull signaling can operate through the cable without additional conditioning because the shielded conductor arrangement supports balanced high-level outputs. The cable has an overall length of 100 ft, balancing voltage drop, capacitance, and noise immunity for routing across a plant floor.

Each conductor has a size of 24 AWG, keeping loop resistance low while maintaining the flexibility required for repeated movement in drag chains. The jacket exits the backshell in an end-mount orientation, which keeps bending strain away from the connector body when the encoder is installed flush against a machine frame. Internally, the harness allocates the required return paths for its channels, providing 17 leads excluding the shield to match the connector pin pattern. This arrangement supports encoder formats with up to 10-bit or 12-bit parallel resolution while helping limit crosstalk and timing skew between signal channels.
