INDUSTRIAL /// M8 / M12 CONNECTOR SYSTEM
M8/M12 SENSOR/ACTUATOR
CABLE ASSEMBLIES
TE’s M8/M12 cable assemblies are available as
single-ended or double-ended, in straight and
angled versions, with shielded and un-shielded
variants. Various cable types are oered depending
on the application requirements. Cable sheathing is
in PVC or PUR. The predened oering in length of
0.5, 1, 1.5, 3, 5, 7 and 10 meters covers a vast range
of customer needs on the market. Customized cable
assemblies in dierent lengths provide a solution
for specic needs. All can be used in combination
with TE’s male/female connectors and I/O Modules.
