PRODUCT INFORMATION
Product Overview
The General Electric IC690USB901 is a communication converter cable designed for GE Series 90 programmable logic controllers. It connects standard host computer USB ports directly to GE Fanuc SNP serial interface ports on supported controllers. The assembly measures 3 meters in total length to provide adequate reach during maintenance and programming tasks.
This cable assembly features molded connector ends for mechanical durability in industrial environments. One end terminates in a USB connector, while the opposing end terminates in a 15-pin male connector. The cable operates across an ambient temperature range from -20 to 75 degrees Celsius.
