Product Introduction
The Woodward 5417-040 Low Density Analog Cable is a specialized wiring solution designed for use with Woodward’s control systems, specifically in applications involving analog signal transmission. This cable is typically used to connect analog I/O modules to terminal boards or field devices. Its construction and layout support reliable transmission of low-frequency signals with minimal interference, making it well-suited for industrial control environments.
Woodward’s analog cables are engineered with high-quality shielding, robust insulation, and precise conductor arrangements to ensure the accurate delivery of analog voltage and current signals over a range of distances. The 5417-040 model is particularly designed for low-density analog connections where fewer signals are required or where space is limited in the cabinet.
