X-Bus Cable 3m | Schneider BMXXBC030K Modicon

Schneider Electric BMXXBC030K Modicon M340 Backplane Extension Cable

The Schneider Electric BMXXBC030K is a 3-meter pre-assembled backplane extension cable designed for the Modicon M340 and Modicon X80 automation platforms. It connects rack expansion modules to daisy-chain PLC racks, enabling reliable high-speed local X-Bus signal transmission across multi-rack control architectures.

Functional Integration and Interconnection

Equipped with two 9-pin male SUB-D connectors, the cable establishes secure electrical connections between rack expansion modules such as the BMXXBE1002 or compatible BMXXBE1000 series modules. It enables multi-rack expansion configurations within industrial control cabinets and distributed PLC installations.

Construction and Operational Envelope

Constructed with industrial-grade shielded cabling materials, the assembly delivers reliable communication performance while maintaining an IP20 protection rating. The cable operates within a temperature range of 0 to 40 deg C and up to 80% non-condensing relative humidity at altitudes up to 1,000 meters above sea level without derating.
