M12 Connectors are compact, rugged, and industry-standard circular connectors widely used in industrial automation, sensor systems, robotics, and Ethernet-based fieldbus protocols. Engineered to withstand mechanical stress, vibration, moisture, and contaminants, these connectors are ideal for harsh environment applications requiring reliable signal and power transmission.
Available in A, B, D, and X coding, M12 connectors support various protocols, from analog signals and DC power to high-speed data transmission including PROFINET, Ethernet/IP, and CANopen. They come in male and female versions with 3 to 12 contacts, available in straight or right-angle orientations to meet space and routing requirements.
Constructed with high-grade thermoplastics and nickel-plated brass shells, these connectors offer IP67 or IP68 ingress protection when mated, making them resistant to water, oil, and dust. Secure screw-locking mechanisms ensure vibration-proof mating in dynamic environments, while gold-plated contacts provide low contact resistance and long service life.
Termination options include solder, crimp, and insulation displacement for fast, reliable installation. Ideal for smart factories, conveyor systems, and automated machinery, M12 connectors are a vital link in Industry 4.0-ready systems. All models are subject to stringent quality control and meet IEC 61076-2-101 or equivalent global standards.
