What this cable connects
The VW3L3D01R40 is a pre-wired development cable for a Lexium integrated drive. It carries an industrial M23 connector, 12 pins, on the drive side for supply voltage, multifunction, and communication interface. The cable end is open with a 19-pin wire-crimp connector — meaning the user terminates the loose wires to their own controller or breakout board. Cable length is 4 m, which is a practical reach for a development bench or a small machine cell where the drive sits within a few meters of the control cabinet.
Fit note for the integrator
The 12-pin M23 connector carries the drive's power and signal lines in one assembly, which simplifies wiring compared to running separate motor and encoder cables. The 19-pin open end gives flexibility to land on a terminal block or a D-sub connector of your choice. Verify pinout against the Lexium integrated drive manual before crimping — the M23 keying is fixed, but the wire colors on the open end must match your controller's I/O map.
