The M12 4Pin Male Connector D-Coded is an extremely rugged, industrial quality Ethernet connector, suitable for a variety of harsh environments. Utilizing the highly reliable M12 connector interface, this Ethernet connector is designed for Cat5e industrial Ethernet applications, utilizing a D-coded 4-pin configuration, which is specifically suited for 100 Mbps fieldbus networks, including PROFINET, EtherNet/IP and other 100 Mbps networks. The D-Coded 4-pin Male Connector D-Coded utilizes precision-machined contacts, providing a reliable low-resistance connection for the Ethernet data and power signals. The M12 D-Coded 4pin Male connector has a D-coded keyway to prevent mismating with other M12 connectors. A strong threaded coupling provides a solid secure connection, which resists vibration, is not easily pulled apart and provides excellent protection in harsh, high-abuse industrial environments. The PVC jacket on the cable side provides an excellent combination of flexibility and abrasion resistance. This is one of the most commonly used materials for industrial cordsets as it is resistant to many oils and greases, and is able to withstand repeated flexing. Overmolded connectors, such as this M12 D-Coded 4pin Male connector, have an overmolded section on the cable end that can provide additional strain relief around the termination point, which can help to prevent conductor fatigue and signal loss. The M12 D-Coded 4pin Male Connector D-Coded is an ideal connector for creating cordsets, for repairs, or for building jumper cables for Cat5e Ethernet applications. The M12 D-Coded 4pin Male is robust, coded correctly, and meets all the necessary industrial Ethernet specifications, and will provide a reliable connection to sensors, I/O modules, and to the controller or automation system. Suitable for the OEM and for maintenance in industrial automation.
