Overview

The TE Connectivity M12 Cable Assembly, SKU TAB62546501-001, is a double-ended, shielded cable designed for industrial fieldbus applications, specifically PROFIBUS. This 0.5-meter assembly features M12 connectors with B-coded, 2-position configurations at both ends: an M12 Plug at End A and an M12 Socket at End B. The cable construction utilizes PA66+25GF, a durable material suitable for demanding industrial environments. Its shielded design provides essential protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), ensuring reliable data transmission and signal integrity. Manufactured in Germany, this cable assembly is ideal for automation, robotics, and industrial networking systems where robust and dependable connectivity is critical. The B-coded configuration prevents misconnection in PROFIBUS networks, while the shielded design maintains signal integrity in high-noise environments. Compatible with PROFIBUS DP/PA networks, this assembly supports data rates up to 12 Mbps. The 2-position design simplifies wiring for fieldbus applications, reducing installation time. Suitable for use in harsh industrial conditions, including temperature ranges from -40°C to +85°C.
