RKH0700 by Bosch Rexroth Indramat

The RKH0700 belongs to the RKH Hybrid Cables series produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat. This ready-terminated cable combines power conductors and signal pairs in one jacket so drive controllers can link to servo motors or I/O devices with fewer routed lines. This layout can reduce the number of separate cable runs between the cabinet and the axis. In automated machinery, the hybrid format reduces cabinet penetration points and shortens installation time during machine assembly. That arrangement can also reduce clutter around cable carriers and motor junction points.

The cable is rated for 5,000,000 continuous bending cycles, indicating suitability for drag-chain motion applications that demand long mechanical life. During movement, it must not bend tighter than a dynamic radius of 10 × D; in this expression, D refers to the outer diameter. Where the run is fixed after installation, the allowable static radius improves to 5 × D, so tighter routing inside a cabinet is possible without stressing the insulation. A maximum operating temperature of 80 °C allows service near motors or in warm enclosures. The minimum operating limit of -40 °C helps the cable remain usable during cold starts and in unheated storage or production areas.

The Basic build level is part of the standard offering for the series and keeps the cable format straightforward for general machine wiring. Being supplied as a Ready-Made assembly, it arrives with installed terminations so no field crimping is required at either end. The construction is classified as a Hybrid Cable, meaning the signal pairs and power conductors share one common jacket in a single assembly. Both ends terminate in a Plug Connector RHS0007, so the same mating interface is used at the drive and motor sides. Using the same connector on both ends can simplify routing decisions when cable orientation must be adjusted during installation.
