About the Network Cable
A Kinetix® 6000M integrated drive-motor system transfers motion commands to the integrated
drive-motor (IDM) through a daisy-chain network using twisted wire pairs for transmitting and
receiving the signals.
The network communication cable is installed between the Kinetix 6000M integrated
drive-motor power interface module (IPIM) and each integrated drive motor in the system. See
the Kinetix 6000M Series B Cable Routing Diagram on page 4

Before You Begin
Remove all packing material from within and around the item. After unpacking, verify the
catalog number against the purchase order, and visually inspect the cable and each connector for
damage. If necessary, immediately notify the carrier of any shipping damage.
Cables are stored and shipped in a coil and will retain this shape unless you straighten the cable.
To straighten a cable, hang a short cable from its mid-point or lay a long cable on the floor in a
straight line. Any coiling that persists should relax within 24 hours. Doing this results in a cable
that is easier to install.
Observe the following precautions when installing the cables in a servo system. Failure to observe
these safety notices could result in personal injury or damage to the motor and equipment.
SHOCK HAZARD: To avoid the hazard of electrical shock, be sure to ground any cable providing
power at a minimum of one point. To prevent the build-up of electrical energy, factory-supplied
cables use one of these grounding techniques:
• Bond the overall shield to the connector housing.
• Make sure there is a dire ct connect ion-to-ground for each cable shield.
• Connect an exposed cable braid or a ground wire, if present, to the power cable clamp,
housing, or another suitable chassis ground.
Failure to observe these safety procedures can result in personal injury or equipment damage.
ATT EN TI ON : Arcing or unexpected motion can occur if cables are connected or disconnected while
power is applied to the IDM system . Before working on an IDM system, disconnect power and wait
the full time interval as indicated in the warning on the IPIM module or verify the DC bus voltage at
the IPIM module measures less than 50V DC.
ATT EN TI ON : The maximum length of cabling between the IPIM and the last IDM unit in the
system must not exceed 100 m (328 ft). Also, a maximum of two extension cables may be
connected between an IDM unit and the preceding IPIM module or IDM unit.
ATT EN TI ON : The examples in this publication show the available connections, some of which may
not be appropriate for your specific installation. Refer to your system level installation instructions
or user manual for recommended wire trim lengths and wiring examples appropriate to your
application.
Do not connect unused wires. Trim and finish unused wires to prevent accidental contact with
other wires or wire shields, or with a ground connection.
