Servo Motor Cable
>
The 6FX5002-5DS11-1AF0 is part of Siemens' MOTION-CONNECT pre-assembled cable range — factory-terminated motor power cables for SINAMICS servo drive systems. This variant is the Basic Line power cable: designed for static and slowly moving applications where the cable does not undergo continuous flex cycling.
Pre-assembly at the factory eliminates on-site connector termination work — both ends arrive correctly fitted, tested, and ready for installation. The DESINA (Decentralised Installation for Automation) design ensures standardised mechanical and electrical compatibility across the range of Siemens servo motors and drives that use the DESINA interface.

The 6FX5002-5DS11-1AF0 uses a resistant PVC outer mantle — the Basic Line specification for cable routing in cable duct, trunking, or fixed installation in control cabinets:
Static installation: Cable routed from drive cabinet to motor, with no movement after installation — fixed machine positions, baseframe-mounted motors, and stationary drive arrangements.
Slowly moving applications: Applications where the cable is occasionally repositioned — such as during maintenance or machine reconfiguration — but does not undergo continuous flex cycles in operation. Distinct from the flexible "Dynamic Line" cables designed for continuous cable track movement.
Resistant PVC mantle: The outer sheath resists oil, coolant, and mechanical abrasion encountered in machine tool and industrial automation environments — extending service life in the harsh ambient conditions of production floors.
SINAMICS drive systems: SINAMICS S110, S120, and related drive family motor power connections from the servo amplifier to the SIMOTICS motor.
CNC machine tool servo axes: Main spindle and axis servo motor power cabling in SINUMERIK-controlled machining centres, turning centres, and grinding machines.
Industrial automation positioning: Servo drive motor power cabling for positioning systems, handling equipment, and automated assembly machines.
Packaging machinery: Servo motor power connections in packaging, filling, and labelling machine servo drive systems.
Q1: What is the difference between MOTION-CONNECT Basic Line and Dynamic Line cables?
Basic Line cables (including 6FX5002-5DS11-1AF0) use a resistant PVC outer mantle suited to static or slowly moving installations — fixed routing in cable trunking or occasional repositioning. Dynamic Line cables use a special flexible outer mantle (typically PUR-based) rated for continuous cable track (drag chain) flexing — hundreds of thousands of bend cycles. Select Basic Line for fixed installations; Dynamic Line for continuously moving cable applications.
Q2: What motors and drives is 6FX5002-5DS11-1AF0 compatible with?
The 6FX5002-5DS11 cable type with M40 connector connects to SIMOTICS servo motors using the M40 DESINA power connector interface. Confirm compatibility from the Siemens MOTION-CONNECT cable catalogue for the specific motor type (1FT7, 1FK7, or other series) and SINAMICS drive combination — the drive-side connector matches the specific SINAMICS power module output format.
Q3: Can 6FX5002-5DS11-1AF0 be used in a cable track (drag chain)?
No — the 6FX5002-5DS11 Basic Line specification is for static and slowly moving applications only. For cable track use, a cable with the Dynamic Line specification (rated for continuous flex cycling) is required. Using a Basic Line cable in a continuously moving cable track will cause premature cable failure from fatigue.
Q4: What is the DESINA standard for servo motor cables?
DESINA (Decentralised Installation for Automation) is a Siemens-led standardisation initiative for servo drive cable interfaces — defining standardised connector sizes, pin assignments, and cable construction to enable interchangeability between drive and motor generations. All Siemens MOTION-CONNECT cables comply with DESINA, ensuring that motor and drive cable interfaces are mechanically and electrically consistent across product generations.
