Fanuc ATA card adapter for 0i-B/ 0i Mate-B/ 0i-C/ 0i Mate-C/ 16i/ 18i/ 21i A20B-2002-0960

📌 FANUC A20B‑2002‑0960 — ATA / Data Server Add‑On Card

General Description:
The A20B‑2002‑0960 is a data server / ATA add‑on circuit board used in FANUC CNC control systems. It’s part of the A20B‑2002 family of internal control PCBs and functions as an ATA adapter or data server interface to support data communication and storage‑related tasks within the CNC controller.

Key Function:

• 🖧 Data Server / ATA Interface: Provides additional data handling and communication capability, often serving as an ATA interface card to extend the controller’s ability to connect with storage or server functions.

• 📊 Add‑On Board: This is not a standalone CPU or memory board; instead, it adds optional data server functionality to the CNC system when a data server or ATA interface is required.

• 🔌 Control Electronics Role: Plugs into the CNC’s internal electronics assembly/backplane to provide the extended interface support needed for file transfer, data logging, or communication add‑ons used by some FANUC CNC configurations.

Typical Use:

• Employed in CNC controller setups where additional data storage or server communication support is needed.

• May be used in i‑Series (e.g., 16i/18i/21i) or similar older modular FANUC controllers that support expansion boards for data functions.
