Highly flexible cables

Highly flexible cables for Industry 4.0 from SAB

For digitalization and Industry 4.0, the cable specialist SAB presents a series of new Industrial Ethernet cables of category 6, 6A, 7, and 7A.

Industry 4.0 is the trending topic in the German manufacturing industry. End-to-end networking and communication at all levels of the production process can result in significant improvements for companies in terms of productivity and flexibility.

What exactly Industry 4.0 will look like in automated production cannot yet be predicted exactly. What is certain is that with increasing networking and communication of plant components, ever-larger amounts of data must be reliably transmitted, even under the most difficult conditions.

Especially in industries such as mechanical engineering or robotics, cables are often exposed to enormous torsional loads or high temperatures and come into contact with various chemicals and oils.

In response to the megatrends of digitalization and Industry 4.0, the cable specialist SAB is presenting a series of new Industrial Ethernet cables of category 6, 6A, 7, and 7A, which are not only extremely robust but also ensure fast and efficient data transmission.

The focus is on two Industrial Gigabit Ethernet lines that have been specially developed for the increasing data transmission rates in automation. In addition to the world’s first CATLine CAT 7A RT, a robot-compatible cable, SAB Bröckskes presents a cable suitable for drag chains with UL/CSA approval – CATLine CAT 7A S.
