Light Duty Multi-Outlet Extension Cords
Designed for indoor applications, these cords are often used to power multiple appliances from one outlet.
Cords with a 90° elbow plug fit flush against a wall outlet, so they fit behind machinery or in areas where space is tight.
SPT cords have a flat cord shape so they fit in tight spaces.

USB Cords
Connect devices such as computers, printers, and mobile devices. The higher the USB standard, the faster cords can transmit data. These cords are backward compatible, so they work with cords and connectors that meet the same or lower USB standard.
90° elbow cords fit flush against equipment so they fit in tight spaces.
Double-shielded cords have a metal braid and foil insulation, so they reduce signal interference from nearby equipment and devices.
Crush-Resistant USB Cords
The insulation serves as a tough armor that protects these cords in high-traffic areas. These cords have braided and foil shielding, which reduces signal interference from nearby equipment and devices. They’re backward compatible, so they work with cords and connectors that meet the same or lower USB standard.
Cords with PVC armor are more lightweight than cords with stainless steel armor.
Stainless steel armor is more crush resistant than PVC armor.
Locking USB Cords
Pinch the sides on the USB type A plugs to insert them; they lock in place to prevent the cord from detaching. These cords have braided and foil shielding, which reduces signal interference from nearby equipment and devices. They are backward compatible, so they work with cords and connectors that meet the same or lower USB standard.
A plug × A plug cords lock on both ends.
A plug × B plug cords lock only on the type A plug end.
Ethernet Cords with M12 Connectors
The M12 threaded ends on these cords seal out contaminants and resist coming loose from vibration better than the RJ45 ends on traditional Ethernet cords. Use them in tough, rugged environments to send high-speed data between sensors, switches, servers, computers, and PLCs not protected by control panels. These cords can power devices as they send data, as long as devices are Power over Ethernet (PoE) compatible. They are often used within Ethernet/IP, Profinet, and EtherCat systems. Their poles and keyways adhere to standard coding layouts, reducing the chance you’ll mismatch connections.
All cords are backward compatible, so they work in networks that meet the same or lower ethernet cable category. For example, a Category 6 cord will work in a Category 5 network, but it will only run at the Category 5 speed.
With either TPE or polyurethane insulation, all cords stand up to harsh factory conditions, chemicals, and UV rays. All are also highly flexible, so they’re good for jobs with continuous motion, such as robotics. TPE-insulated cords resist abrasion and won’t pit or crack from welding runoff. Double-shielded cords have layers of braid and foil that block signal interference from nearby devices, preventing impact to transmission speeds and data.
When mated, all cords are IP67 rated to protect against dust and temporary submersion. IP65-rated cords stand up to washdowns. IP66K-rated cords stand up to high-pressure washdowns.
Add caps to protect cords and maintain their IP ratings when not in use.

Ethernet Cords with M12 and RJ45 Connectors
To send high-speed data in tough, rugged environments, these cords have an M12 connector on one end that threads onto switches, sensors, and other devices prone to vibration. The other end has a traditional RJ45 plug that connects to Ethernet equipment, such as computers, IO modules, and programmable logic controllers (PLCs). These cords can also power devices as they send data, so you don’t need a separate power cord. But, the device must be Power over Ethernet (PoE) compatible. They’re often used with EtherNet/IP, Profinet, and EtherCAT systems. With TPE insulation, they stand up to bending in robotics applications. It also means they resist abrasion and won’t pit or crack from chemicals, sunlight, and welding runoff.
Thanks to its threads and IP rating, the M12 end is water and dust tight when mated. Poles and keyways on its face adhere to standard coding layouts, which reduces the chance of mismatching connections.
When choosing an Ethernet cord, make sure you match or exceed your network’s ethernet cable category. These cords are backward compatible—for example, a Category 6 cord will work in a Category 5 network, but it’ll only run at the Category 5 speed.
Double-shielded cords have layers of braid and foil that block signal interference from nearby devices, maintaining their speed and data integrity.
Add caps to protect connectors and maintain their IP rating when not in use.

Robot Controller Cords
Use these cords to extend the distance between your FANUC CRX robot arm and your controller. Plug one end directly into the controller, and connect the other end to the existing cord coming from the robot arm.
