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.

Convert one HDMI size or style to another.

Protect your computer and other sensitive equipment against data breaches and malware from unknown USB devices. These adapters plug into a USB port to block data transfers to and from your computer. They allow power to flow through so the port can only be used for charging. Insert them into a USB port and push in the locking tab. You can only remove them using the key (sold separately).

Use these compact connectors in spaces where M12 connectors won't fit. They're often used in crowded, high-vibration areas such as robot arms and IO-Link devices with many connections. They also fit on miniature proximity and photoelectric sensors.

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 rubber 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.

When mated, all cords are IP67 rated to protect against dust and temporary submersion.

Unlike the RJ45 ends on traditional Ethernet cords, the threaded M8 ends on these cords keep contaminants out and resist coming loose from vibration. They are often used with sensors, switches, I/O modules, and computers. Braided shielding protects against signal interference. Insulated with polyurethane rubber, these cords bend easily, so they are ideal for applications that require continuous flexibility such as robotics. They also resist oil. When mated, they are IP67 rated for protection from dust and temporary submersion.

FDA compliant to safely touch food and threaded for a tight hold, these cords won’t vibrate loose as they send high-speed data to sensors and other automated devices in food, beverage, and pharmaceutical plants. They stand up to brief submersion as well as high-heat washdowns and harsh cleaners common to food lines, thanks to their IP ratings, TPE insulation, and stainless steel and polypropylene housing. Their insulation also means they’re flexible and won’t break down from abrasion or UV exposure. Overall, they’re more rugged than traditional RJ45 cords.

To reduce the risk of signal loss between equipment, these cords block signal interference from nearby devices. Poles and keyways on their face adhere to standard coding layouts, keeping you from mis-mating connections. D coded, these connectors are often used within Ethernet/IP, Profinet, and EtherCat systems. They can also power devices as they send data, so you don’t need a separate power cord. But, your device must be Power over Ethernet (PoE) compatible.

When choosing an Ethernet connector, make sure you match or exceed your network’s ethernet cable category. These connectors are backward compatible—for example, a Category 6 connector will work in a Category 5 network, but it’ll only run at the Category 5 speed.

Protect connections in washdown environments while maintaining access—these RJ45 plugs and adapters latch together securely, yet quickly detach. All are shielded to prevent electromagnetic interference.

These connectors run the automated world, from robot arms and photoelectric sensors to PLCs, IO-Link devices, and Ethernet switches. The original metric circular connector, they continue to be the standard today. They screw together tightly to protect against contaminants and hold firm against high vibration. Each one has a coding that indicates a unique keyway, preventing mismated connection errors before they happen. The coding also tells you whether a connector can send power, control, or data. Some can send a combination of the three, reducing the need for multiple connectors.
