Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary purpose of the 1492-CABLE010S?
The 1492-CABLE010S is used to connect Allen-Bradley SLC 500 1746 I/O modules to a 1492 Interface Module (IFM). This replaces traditional point-to-point wiring with a pre-wired cable to save time and prevent errors.
Can this cable be used with 32-point I/O modules?
No, the 1492-CABLE010S is specifically designed for 8-point and 16-point I/O modules that utilize the 1746-RTB removable terminal block. 32-point modules typically require a different cable assembly.
Does the 1.0-meter length include the connectors?
Yes, the 1.0-meter specification represents the total length of the cable assembly from the terminal block end to the 20-pin header connector.
Is the 1492-CABLE010S shielded against electrical noise?
Yes, this cable features a shielded design to ensure high signal integrity and noise immunity, which is critical in busy industrial environments with significant EMI.
What wire gauge is used in this Allen-Bradley interface cable?
This cable utilizes 22 AWG wiring, which provides the ideal balance between flexibility for cabinet routing and the durability required for 300V rated industrial applications.
