TE Connectivity (TE), is introducing an M8/M12 cable assembly solution for Fieldbus data communications, complementing its existing sensor/actuator cable assembly solutions for industrial networks.

The A and B-coded M8/M12 cable assemblies comply with Profibus, DeviceNet and CC-link protocols, offering multiple options for a variety of needs. They have 360-degree shielding against EMI for complete protection for signal and data transmission and are rated IP67 for resistance to dust and water. The assemblies are over molded in either PVC or halogen-free polyurethane (PUR) cables, suitable for drag chain applications or torsional stress, depending on customer performance requirements. They come with various standard cable length options from 0.5 to 15.0 meters.

Assemblies can be produced in customer-specific plug-and-play configurations. They can be delivered quickly, thanks to local stocks around the world, low minimum order quantities and a worldwide sample service that meets customer needs for short go-to-market times.

Applications for the assemblies lie in numerous areas of industry, including process control systems, robotics and automation, production equipment, machine tools and material handling.
