FC04W5 Communication Cable: Complete Guide for Oriental Motor AS Series PLC Integration
On this page
What is the Oriental Motor FC04W5 cable?
The FC04W5 is Oriental Motor's connection cable for its stepper/motion line — a three-metre white round cable that runs from a DB9 female connector (metal shell, panel-screw lock) to a 6-position modular plug, with a snap-on ferrite core at each end to keep switching noise out of the signal pair. This record is a lot of two factory-sealed cables, each in its ORIENTAL MOTOR FC04W5-labelled bag — the photographed hardware is a new domestic replacement build as recorded at intake on 28 November 2025. All nine photos and the inspection video show these exact cables.

Where this cable fits
Oriental Motor's stepper systems talk to their drivers over short control runs, and the FC04W5 is the off-the-shelf answer: the DB9 female end lands on the controller's D-sub port, the modular plug lands on the driver-side jack, and the three-metre run covers a typical cabinet-to-machine route. The ferrite cores at each end are not decoration — a switching drive puts hash on its control lines, and the cores are what keep that hash from showing up as false steps or chatter on the serial path. Everything about the photographed pair says unopened supply: the clear bags still sealed, the Oriental Motor labels with their barcodes straight, the ferrites and connectors clean.
For anyone servicing an Oriental Motor-based axis whose cable was cut, chewed or flexed to death, these two are direct drop-ins — plug in, route, and the axis is back on line.
