    Sockets

    Panel-Mount Sockets

    When cable gets yanked by mistake, these connectors separate before anything breaks. They’re often used to connect cable to equipment in busy areas, such as near modular conveyors. They’re also used with sensors and other devices that require frequent changeouts or maintenance. When reconnected, the magnets snap plugs and sockets together in the correct alignment every time. The magnet is strong enough to keep them joined even with some jostling. Use them with power, data, and sensor cables.
    With a PTFE body and stainless steel housing, these connectors hold up to temperature swings. They also resist corrosion from chemicals. Rated NEMA 6 and IP67, they’re sealed against dust, washdowns, and even temporary submersion. A complete assembly includes a plug and socket—plugs mate with both sockets and panel-mount sockets.
    Connectors with solder pin terminals let you use your own cable and make solder connections to up to six pins.
