This ix Industrial A Key to M12 D-Code female cable assembly provides a compact, robust alternative to traditional RJ45 industrial Ethernet connections. Designed for space-constrained machinery and control cabinets, the ix interface delivers up to 75% space savings compared to RJ45 while maintaining Cat6A performance capability.
The cable features an ix A Key male connector to an M12 D-Code female straight connector, making it ideal for Fast Ethernet (100 Mbps) industrial networks in factory automation, robotics, machine vision support systems, and industrial switching environments.
Built with a PUR outer jacket and engineered for drag chain use, this assembly supports continuous motion applications with high resistance to oil, vibration, torsion, and mechanical stress. The M12 side provides IP67 protection for secure operation in harsh industrial conditions.
