UMI-S0087 Unitronics UMI Keypad Cable 5m
MPN: UMI-S0087
Alt. SKU: UMIS0087
Why Choose the Unitronics UMI-S0087 Keypad Cable?
The Unitronics UMI-S0087 is a dedicated keypad extension cable designed for connecting remote operator keypads to compatible Unitronics variable frequency drives (VFDs). It allows the keypad to be positioned away from the inverter, improving accessibility for configuration, monitoring and diagnostics within industrial control panels.
In many VFD installations the drive itself is mounted inside an electrical enclosure, making the integrated keypad difficult to access. The UMI-S0087 cable enables the keypad to be mounted on a cabinet door or operator panel while maintaining stable communication with the drive system.
The cable features Cat5 Ethernet-style wiring with RJ45 connectors and an extended length of approximately 5 metres. This provides flexible installation options when routing between the inverter and an externally mounted keypad in industrial automation systems.
