Schneider Electric 140CRA93100 RIO Drop Cable Adaptor Module – Quantum Series
In a high-availability industrial automation environment, a single point of failure in the remote I/O network can cascade into unplanned downtime, production loss, and costly emergency maintenance. When the drop cable connection between a Quantum RIO head and the Modbus Plus trunk is compromised or missing the correct adaptor interface, the entire remote I/O drop goes offline — leaving field devices blind and control loops open. The Schneider Electric 140CRA93100 RIO Drop Cable Adaptor Module is the precision-engineered solution that ensures a reliable, standards-compliant physical connection between the RIO drop cable and the Modbus Plus network trunk, eliminating this critical vulnerability.
The 140CRA93100 occupies a specialized position within the Schneider Electric Quantum automation platform — one of the most widely deployed large-scale PLC architectures in process industries worldwide. As a dedicated adaptor module for the Quantum RIO (Remote I/O) subsystem, it enables distributed I/O architectures across long cable runs, supporting plant-wide control topologies that demand deterministic communication and rugged field performance. Its adoption across petrochemical, water treatment, power generation, and discrete manufacturing facilities underscores its role as a foundational component in global industrial automation infrastructure.
