Product Description of 5CASDL.0150-03 SDL Flexible Extension Cable

5CASDL.0150-03 is B&R original high-flex SDL extension cable dedicated for lengthening the connection distance between B&R Automation PC host and Automation Panel HMI display terminal, belonging to -03 drag-chain flexible series of SDL transmission wiring product line. The coding 0150 represents standard finished cable length of 15 meters for extended wiring layout, suffix -03 stands for enhanced repeated bending flexible grade, different from fixed installation -00 type SDL cable. This extension cable adopts factory pre-molded DVI-D male to male double-end finished connector design, specially developed for on-site equipment reconstruction, cabinet space adjustment and long-distance movable wiring extension demands, supporting full uncompressed high-definition digital video plus auxiliary control synchronous signal transmission under continuous reciprocating movement, all specifications comply with global industrial electrical safety certification standards for extended industrial deployment.

Description

Product Description of 5CASDL.0150-03 SDL Flexible Extension Cable

1. Product Introduction

2. Basic Product Information

Official part number is 5CASDL.0150-03, simplified coding 5CASDL015003 used for purchasing, warehousing and spare part management. Whole cable outer jacket is matte black modified TMPU material, continuously printed with B&R brand logo, SDL Extension Cable marking, UL specification code and temperature rating parameters on outer surface. Two terminals are pre-installed with standard 24+1 gold-plated male DVI-D connectors without on-site terminal crimping or wiring modification; actual finished length tolerance is controlled within ±120mm based on nominal 15m dimension, total finished gross weight is around 2840 grams according to factory standard specification. The product remains mass-produced and supplied as regular original accessory in B&R official product catalog.

3. Function and Product Positioning

Core function is to extend original short SDL wiring length for host-display signal link, realizing seamless SDL bus digital signal lengthening without intermediate signal converter or adapter, transmitting DVI high-speed image data and matched auxiliary control circuit simultaneously to ensure complete signal integrity after distance extension. Positioned as special flexible extension accessory for mobile automation equipment, compared with fixed laying SDL extension wiring, this -03 flex specification fits drag chain routing, swing arm suspension wiring, movable operation box displacement extension and sliding mechanical equipment long-distance wiring expansion; static cabinet lengthening renovation can also select this cable as alternative extension solution. Main application scenarios cover new project pre-wiring extension, old equipment maintenance replacement and production line upgrading wiring lengthening modification of B&R HMI-IPC system.

4. Core Performance Parameters

Electrical Performance

Rated working voltage ≤30VDC conforming to UL AWM 20236 industrial wire standard. Internal conductors adopt two types of stranded flexible copper construction: control signal cores use 24AWG tinned stranded copper, high-speed DVI signal cores adopt 26AWG multi-strand flexible copper; maximum single-core conductor resistance of 26AWG is below 145Ω per kilometer, overall insulation resistance exceeds 200MΩ per kilometer to guarantee low-loss stable long-distance signal transmission after extension. All connector pins are full gold-plated to reduce contact impedance and improve oxidation resistance; each connector supports more than 200 times plugging cycles without electrical performance decay, maximum locking torque of connector fixing screw during extension installation is limited at 0.5Nm. Characteristic impedance of internal differential signal pairs is controlled at 100±10Ω to restrain signal reflection caused by lengthened cable layout.

Cable Structure and Raw Material

Internal each signal wire pair is individually wrapped with aluminum foil shielding layer, plus full coverage high-density tinned copper braided net overall double shielding structure with braiding coverage over 85%, effectively filtering external industrial electromagnetic interference and avoiding high-resolution picture distortion under long-distance extension and frequent bending conditions. Core insulation and outer sheath apply halogen-free, silicone-free modified flexible TMPU elastomer material with outstanding low-temperature softness and oil resistance per VDE 0282-10 standard, no harmful gas release under abnormal high temperature environment. Nominal outer diameter of cable main body is 8.6mm with upper tolerance up to 9mm, inner stranded core layout is optimized for cyclic bending endurance to satisfy long-term dynamic extension service requirement.

Mechanical & Environmental Performance

Continuous working ambient temperature range is -20℃ to +80℃, storage temperature follows identical range; long-term storage environment needs to avoid sustained temperature below -25℃ or over 85℃ direct heat baking. Pollution degree complies with EN61131-2 Pollution Degree 2, applicable for conventional non-corrosive industrial workshop environment with slight floating dust. Minimum dynamic bending radius for drag-chain extended wiring is 8 times cable outer diameter, static fixed extension laying requires minimum bending radius of 5 times cable outer diameter. The cable passes thousands of reciprocating cyclic bending durability test at rated dynamic radius, distinguished from limited 100-cycle fixed bending of -00 fixed cable; permissible continuous running pulling tension ≤50N, peak installation pulling load shall not exceed 400N to prevent internal core breakage during extension wiring construction.

5. Certification and Supporting Accessories

The extension cable holds CE conformity certification, cULus certification with file number E115267 and Class I Division 2 hazardous location certification E180196 compliant with North American safety standard, eligible for extension wiring inside petrochemical, pharmaceutical and fine chemical flammable gas hazardous workshops with ABCD group and T4 temperature grade requirement. Optional original matching accessories include B&R dedicated connector dustproof caps, drag chain internal extension cable fixing buckles and connector strain relief fixed holders, all auxiliary parts have independent part numbers in B&R accessory catalog for separate procurement.

6. Applicable Equipment and Application Fields
