Because they tightly thread to M12 connections, these connectors won’t let contaminants in or come loose from vibration in rugged industrial environments and automated systems as they send power and signal or just power to your equipment.

Also known as pico connectors, these connectors are often used with 8 mm and smaller proximity switches and photoelectric switches.

Join two devices with M8 connectors to a single cord, distribution block, or I/O module with M12 connectors to save space and reduce the number of cords in industrial automation setups. Often used with sensors and switches, these splitters send or receive two signals through one connection.

A threaded M8 end on these connectors keeps contaminants out and withstands vibration better than RJ45 ends on traditional Ethernet cords.
