GTO R4887 Power Cable 6 ft with Strain Relief for SW3000XLS and SW4000XLS Operators
The R4887 power cable is a replacement 6 ft operator cable with an integrated strain relief used on select GTO and Linear Pro XLS swing gate operators. In these systems, the cable carries low-voltage operator wiring from the actuator arm into the control box and the strain relief helps keep the cable from being pulled, twisted, or chafed at the enclosure entry. A damaged cable can cause intermittent movement, blown fuses, erratic motor operation, or complete failure of the affected arm, especially if the insulation is cut or moisture has entered the wire jacket. This part is normally ordered when the original power cable has been damaged during gate service, arm replacement, control box work, or storm cleanup. Fitment should be verified by the operator model, cable length, and wiring arrangement because similar GTO/Linear arms can use different harnesses.

Technician Note
If the old cable failed from rubbing, gate movement, or poor routing, correct the routing and strain relief installation before putting the new cable into service. A new cable can fail quickly if it is pinched at the hinge side or pulled tight through the full gate swing.
Before Ordering Checklist
- Confirm the operator model and generation before ordering
- Match the cable length to the original cable routing
- Compare wire colors, wire count, and terminal connections
- Inspect the control box entry hole and strain relief location
- Disconnect power before working on gate operator wiring
Professional Advisory
Do not splice damaged operator cables as a permanent repair in exposed gate environments. Use the correct replacement cable and have a qualified gate technician handle unsafe wiring or high-voltage conditions.
Important Ordering Warnings
- R4887 is commonly referenced for 6 ft cable applications; it is not the same as longer dual-gate cable kits.
- Incorrect wiring can damage the control board or operator arm.
Product Questions and Answers
How long is the R4887 cable?
R4887 is commonly listed as a 6 ft power cable with strain relief for select GTO and Linear Pro XLS swing gate operators.
Which models commonly use this cable?
It is commonly associated with SW3000XLS and SW4000XLS operators, with SW3200XLS and SW4200XLS dual applications when the parts diagram confirms the same cable.
What does the strain relief do?
The strain relief secures the cable where it enters the control box or enclosure so movement, pulling, and vibration do not damage the wiring.
Can I use any similar cable instead?
No. Match the wire count, length, insulation, strain relief, and terminal layout to the operator parts diagram. A generic cable may not route or terminate correctly.
When should this cable be replaced?
Replace it if the jacket is cut, wires are damaged, the strain relief is broken, moisture has entered, or the operator has intermittent movement related to cable flexing.
