    M12 Connectors

    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.

    Unshielded

    Shielded

    Shielded—Shielding blocks electrical noise from motors, drives, and other equipment, preventing erratic readings, false triggers, and data errors that cause downtime. Use these connectors near high-interference sources or anywhere with shielded cable, such as fieldbus networks, sensors, and encoders.

    M8 Connectors

    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.

    M23 Connectors

    Reliably power or control servomotors, controllers, drives, and other devices where high power can interfere with control signals. You can find these connectors in high-vibration environments, such as near automated equipment and assembly lines.
    When mating connectors, the gender and pole layout must be opposite. Poles are numbered on the face of the connector.

    M16 Connectors

    An alternative to M12 A-coded connectors, these connectors have larger poles to withstand higher current in high-vibration areas. Find them on sensors, machine vision cameras, servomotors, and actuators.

    Quick-Connect M12 Connectors

    Push together for a hold that's just as secure as screw-together connectors, even under high vibration. Like standard M12 connectors, you can find these on everything from robot arms and photoelectric sensors to PLCs, IO-Link devices, and Ethernet switches.
    Mate plugs and sockets with receptacles of the opposite gender. Plugs and sockets cannot mate with each other.
