With pin connector patterns based on the IEC 61076-2-117 standard, you benefit from a high degree of market compatibility. Rely on a reliable power and data supply. Protect your systems against supply gaps and unplanned downtimes.
Connection: standard. Design: excellent.
The first M17 hybrid connector in accordance with the IEC 61076-2-117 standard features maximum compatibility and flexibility.
The new international standard for single-cable solutions
The new IEC 61076-2-117 standard specifies shielded M12-M40 hybrid connectors with standard and fast locking for industrial applications. The new standard defines the mechanical interface as well as electrical parameters, EMC requirements, and degrees of protection up to IP67. The compact M17 hybrid connectors from Phoenix Contact are suitable for space-critical, modular designs. This makes them ideal for developers searching for robust and standard-compliant single-cable solutions.
The new M17 PRO hybrid connector
The added value in detail IEC pin connector pattern with ONECLICK fast-locking system
Signals, data, and power can be transmitted simultaneously with the M17 PRO hybrid connector. The result: more compact devices with clear and space-saving system layouts. Take advantage of the versatility of the powerful M17 interface. Reduce the installation effort in your applications.
With a 15% reduction in the installed height compared to the standard M17, the new hybrid connector enables a much more compact device design. Save valuable installation space in tight installation situations. This avoids compromises in the system wiring.
The mechanical and color coding in the pin connector patterns ensures that the 600 V and 50 V versions are not mistaken. This effectively prevents damage, increases operational safety, and shortens mounting and maintenance times.
The patented ONECLICK fast-locking system ensures fast and reliable mounting with tactile, visual, and acoustic feedback of the locking position. The connector snaps into place with just one “click”, which prevents failures and incorrect installations. This ensures permanently stable connections even under the influence of vibrations and adverse temperatures in harsh industrial environments.
With daisy-chain wiring, several devices can be connected in series easily – without the need for complex parallel wiring. This saves material, reduces installation work and minimizes potential sources of error. At the same time, the contact protection ensures safe handling. This saves you time and material and ensures safe and efficient cabling.

Questions and answers
The security of supply due to global availability is much higher with standardized connectors than with proprietary solutions. The problem of the single-source supply chain is eliminated. In addition, standardization provides guidelines for the mechanical and electrical performance of the products and thus provides manufacturers and users with additional reliability.
The M17 PRO hybrid connector is always the right choice when looking for a 3-in-1 solution for simultaneous signal, data, and power transmission in intelligent field devices. Whether in low-voltage motors, cobots, conveying technology, or intralogistics, the M17 PRO HYBRID brings the advantages of a compact connection solution combined with a high packing density of contacts and current transmission up to 16 A.
The ONECLICK fast-locking system provides users with triple feedback during device connection and system cabling when the connector pair is securely locked. The markings, the simple “click” sound, and the tangible haptic ensure that the connectors are connected to create a vibration-resistant connection in any mounting position.
The color differentiation shows the user at first glance whether it is a 50 V or 630 V version. Additional coding bars in the pin connector pattern prevent mismatching during system cabling and ensure additional safety.
In addition to the familiar housing designs from the M17 PRO series, a new flange size is available for the M17 PRO HYBRID. The 21.6 x 21.6 mm flange dimension is now also available for both the straight and the angled, rotatable device plug as a logical extension of the compact M17 family. In combination with the reduced installation height of the angled versions to 30 mm, Phoenix Contact provides the most compact solution on the market for device wiring.
