M8 and M12 connectors have become established as the standard for industry. Take advantage of the compact circular connectors for your interfaces and media: for signals, data and power.
We provide you with all numbers of positions and codings in one standard pin connector pattern. In addition to connectors for assembly and assembled cables, the product range also includes device connectors and distributors.
- All in a compact design – from safe and fast data transmission and high-position signal transmission to innovative M12 power cabling
- Consistent cabling for all interfaces from field level to the device
- Reliable use, thanks to robust designs and high-quality materials with IP65/IP67 protection
- Complete product range – even for more stringent requirements such as those in the food industry or in outdoor applications
- Save time, thanks to installation with SPEEDCON fast locking system or assembly using fast connection technology
Fast data transmission
Complex automation processes call for high volumes of data at ever-increasing transmission speeds. Transmit this data safely and reliably using connectors from Phoenix Contact which are suitable for industrial use. We offer solutions for all common networks and fieldbus systems.
High speed up to 10 Gbps
With our X-coded connectors we offer you a future-proof data transfer which you can now integrate into your infrastructures, networks or terminal devices. Seamless communication is therefore possible across the entire company network – from office to machine.
Reliable shielding concept
Our data connector housings are 360° shielded. Furthermore, X-coded components also have pair shielding right through to the pin connector pattern.
From the IP67 world to the IP20 world
You can link the shielded IP20 world with the robust IP67 world using assembled RJ45 to M12 Ethernet cables. Patch cables simplify installation.
Innovative hybrid cabling
Save time and space: with the Y-coded M12 hybrid connectors and the appropriate device connectors, you can transmit data and power to the device via an interface – in a compact design suitable for industrial use.
For all common networks and fieldbuses
Cabling from the field to the control level: for bus applications, we offer A and B-encoded M12 connectors which are specially designed for field bus technology. Pre-assembled network cables and connectors ensure effective communication in machinery and systems.
Compact design with M8
Data connectors in a compact M8 design are especially designed for space-critical applications.
Reliable signal transmission
Phoenix Contact has the largest product and solution range in M8 and M12 designs for the secure transmission of signals: from standard applications to high contact density, to pre-assembled cables or connectors for assembly, device connectors, and distributors. Flexibly combine the components that you need for the connection of your sensors and actuators.
High packing density
In industrial applications, the trend is moving towards increasingly compact designs while still maintaining high packing density. You can transmit signals via the 12- and 17-pos. high-density connectors in a space saving M12 design. The A-coding is standardized and is compatible with being combined in other interfaces.
Always the right cable
The PUR cables that we use as standard are halogen-free, resistant to chemicals, oils, and lubricants and are suitable for drag chain applications. Cost-effective PVC cables can be used in applications where medium mechanical strains are expected. We offer special tailor-made cable qualities for outdoor, food industry and railway applications.
Quick and easy diagnostics
You can quickly and easily identify errors in the signal path with M12 connectors with integrated LEDs.
Maximum power, compact size
Device connection technology does not just have to be powerful, it also needs to be compact and flexible. The innovative M12 power cabling from Phoenix Contact offers maximum power in an extremely compact size. Supply motors and devices in the field with up to 16 A or up to 690 V depending on the design.
AC applications
The S, K, and M models are designed for AC applications such as the power connection of a three-phase monitor.
DC applications
The T- and L-codings are used for low-voltage DC applications, such as for the power supply to distributed I/O modules or DC motors.
Inexpensive design-in
Our M12 power device connectors enable integrated construction. You can thus also supply compact devices with high power.
Always the best connection technology
Cabling sensors and actuators in an industrial environment requires the reliable and fast connection of electric cables. With our connectors for assembly, we provide all connection technologies suitable for your application in an M12 design. Choose between Push-in or QUICKON fast connection technologies or screw, crimp or pierce connection.
Always the best connection technology
Choose the right connection technology from our wide range to transfer your data, signals, and power.
Quick and tool-free with Push-in Technology
Wire solid and pre-treated conductors easily and without tools, thanks to direct insertion with Push-in connection technology. Open the terminal point using the colored lever. With this method, you can also wire fine stranded litz wires or release conductors by hand.
80% faster
QUICKON provides the fastest connection for M12 connectors. The insulation displacement contact severs the conductor insulation. It creates a resilient, vibration resistant, and gas-tight connection for litz wires.
Compact and can be automated
The crimp connection enables a fast, automated connection whenever cables have to be assembled in high quantities. The extremely compact connector is suitable for railway applications.
For higher packing densities
Connectors with pierce connection are impressive due to their compact and nevertheless high-position design. The contact is made via a contact pin, which pierces the single wires axially.
The proven classic
The screw connection is one of the classic connection technology solutions. Assemble a variety of cables and cable qualities on site, quickly and without errors.
Fast locking
Just half a turn: reduce your assembly time by 95% with SPEEDCON. It satisfies all electrical and mechanical standards and requirements and is fully compatible with M12 connectors.
