Allen-Bradley Kinetix 6500 Multi-axis EtherNet/IP Servo Drives (2094)
Modular multi-axis drive using the 2094 power rail with EtherNet/IP CIP Motion control; withdrawn from sale at the end of 2025.
Allen-Bradley lists this series as discontinued. The manufacturer's recommended replacement: Kinetix 5700 Servo Drives (Rockwell product page: no longer available for sale as of 31 December 2025). We can help with spares for installed machines, a migration to the replacement, or an alternative.

Notes on this data
Ratings are the shared Kinetix 6200/6500 axis-module figures.
Specify Motion is not affiliated with Rockwell Automation. Allen-Bradley and Kinetix 6500 Multi-axis EtherNet/IP Servo Drives (2094) are used only to identify the product. Comparisons use published figures; always confirm against the current datasheet.
Alternatives that meet or exceed these figures
Engineers often come to us with an Allen-Bradley part number and leave with an alternative that is easier to source, quicker to deliver or a better fit for the machine. These 3 series from our supply network are the closest match on published figures.
Leadshine's EL7 platform spans 220 VAC drives from 400 W to 2 kW, 400 VAC drives to 7.5 kW and an 11-22 kW high-power range, all with STO and EtherCAT, Modbus/pulse or PROFINET variants.

Figures are the highest published for each series and are not always measured the same way. A higher figure is not automatically a better choice: mounting, duty cycle, feedback, connectors and approvals matter too. An engineer will check the fit against your application before recommending anything.
