Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• What types of equipment typically use this M12 to RJ45 cable? This cable commonly connects Siemens PROFINET devices like ET200pro remote I/O (M12 port) to standard network switches or controllers with RJ45 ports.
• Can this cable be used in permanent cable carrier installations? Yes, with its 3 million cycle rating at 100mm radius, it's specifically designed for continuous motion in cable carriers and drag chains.
• What does "D-coded" mean for the M12 connector? D-coding specifies the pin arrangement and key position. It's commonly used for Industrial Ethernet (PROFINET) and 100Mbit/s Ethernet applications.
• Is this cable suitable for outdoor or direct sunlight applications? The UV-resistant jacket provides protection against sunlight degradation, making it suitable for outdoor use in industrial settings.
• What maintenance is required for cables in continuous motion applications? Regular inspection for jacket wear, proper strain relief, and ensuring bending radius limits are maintained will extend cable life in dynamic applications.
