Cables & Connectors

For the best results, we recommend using our cables and connectors with your RMC200, RMC150, RMC100, and RMC70 series motion controllers.

Cables

Delta's cables are available in mutiple standard lengths, with custom lengths available for some cable types.

Pigtail cables provide a compact, convenient option for RMC200 modules. These cables are for short distances between the RMC200 and terminal blocks within the same cabinet. For long cable runs, use cables with lower resistance and better shielding. Other lengths are available by special order; contact Delta for prices and lead times. Installation and wiring datasheets are available for each part number linked below.

About cable lengths: The part numbers below all end with "nnA." The characters nn may be replaced with 06 or 12. For example, R2-CB-A8-06A or R2-CB-A8-12A.

  • The cables with a part number ending in 06A are 6 feet long (1.83 m).
  • The cables with a part number ending in 12A are 12 ft (3.66 m).

Use with the RMC75 QA Module and the RMC100 and RMC150 Quad Modules. Pigtail cables provide a compact, convenient option for RMC modules. These cables are for short distances between the RMC and terminal blocks within the same cabinet. For long cable runs, use cables with lower resistance and better shielding. Custom lengths are available per request.

One (1) DB25 to three (3) individual pig-tailed cables for drive, encoder, and limits.

Setting up the RMC75S, the RMC75P, and the RMC100 requires connecting a PC to the RMC's RS-232 serial port. For PCs with no serial port, Delta recommends the Startech ICUSB232FTN USB-to-Serial cable. This 5.6 ft cable with built-in converter may be purchased separately or from Delta.
