Description
Allen-Bradley 1492-CABLE025Y 2.5-meter pre-wired cable
Product Dimensions:
The Allen-Bradley 1492-CABLE025Y is a pre-wired interface cable designed to provide a seamless connection between Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) I/O modules and terminal blocks or Interface Modules (IFMs).
Here is a detailed breakdown of this component in English.
1. Product Detailed Description
The 1492-CABLE025Y is part of Rockwell Automation’s Digital Plug-and-Play Wiring System. It features a pre-terminated connector on one end (designed for specific Allen-Bradley I/O cards) and a multi-pin connector on the other.
The “025” in the catalog number signifies a cable length of 2.5 meters (approx. 8.2 feet), while the “Y” suffix typically denotes a specific wiring configuration or connector type compatible with high-density I/O modules.

3. Product Advantages
-
Reduced Labor Costs: Eliminates the need for manual point-to-point wiring, which can save hours of assembly time.
-
Error Prevention: Pre-tested connections significantly reduce the risk of wiring errors and “swapped” signals during installation.
-
Easy Maintenance: If a cable is damaged, it can be replaced in seconds without re-landing dozens of individual wires.
-
Professional Finish: Provides a much cleaner and more organized look inside the control cabinet compared to loose bundles of wire.
4. Important Considerations (Precautions)
-
Compatibility: Ensure the “Y” suffix matches your specific PLC I/O card and IFM module. Not all 1492 cables are interchangeable.
-
Bend Radius: Avoid sharp bends during installation to prevent internal wire fatigue or signal interference.
-
Environmental Shielding: While durable, ensure the cable is not exposed to chemicals or temperatures exceeding its 80°C rating.
-
Voltage Limits: Do not exceed the 300V rating; this cable is intended for control signals, not high-power distribution.
5. Product Applications
This cable is primarily used in industrial automation environments, including:
-
PLC-to-IFM Links: Connecting ControlLogix or CompactLogix I/O modules to remote terminal blocks.
-
Control Panel Manufacturing: High-volume assembly where speed and repeatability are critical.
-
System Retrofitting: Quickly upgrading old control systems by swapping out I/O headers without rewiring the entire field side.
