Overview
The Allen-Bradley 1492-CABLE025R is a pre-wired digital I/O interface cable engineered for industrial automation systems. This cable eliminates the need for field termination and provides a reliable, tested connection between PLC digital I/O modules and field devices. With its pre-wired design and factory-tested construction, the 1492-CABLE025R reduces installation time, minimizes wiring errors, and supports rapid system commissioning across legacy and contemporary Allen-Bradley platforms.
Key Features
- Pre-wired and pre-tested construction for immediate use out of the box
- 20-conductor, 22 AWG twisted-pair cable design for noise immunity
- 1771-WN connector interface compatible with digital I/O modules
- 2.5-meter (8.2-foot) length suitable for typical cabinet-to-field distances
- Drop-in replacement for legacy digital I/O wiring systems
- Supports SLC 500, ControlLogix, CompactLogix, and PLC-5 platforms
