M12 Series A, B, C, D Coded Connectors and Cables

 

What is an M12 Cable and what do the different Codes mean:
An M12 cable is a type of industrial cable that uses M12 connectors, which are circular connectors with a 12mm thread diameter. These connectors are commonly used in industrial automation, sensors, and control systems because they provide a reliable, secure connection in harsh environments.

M12 cables are often used to connect devices like sensors, actuators, or PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers) to other parts of an automation system. They can be used for both power and data transmission, and come in different configurations, such as 4, 5, or 8-pin versions, depending on the application.

They’re popular in industries like manufacturing, automotive, and process control, due to their durability, resistance to vibrations, and IP67 (or higher) ratings for water and dust resistance.
