Ethernet M12 8-pin male A-coded to RJ45 CAT6 cable, 15 meter / 49 feet, part number CCB-84901-1005-15 Key benefits - Reliable industrial network and power connection: A-coded M12 to RJ45 CAT6 cable designed for stable data communications and PoE injector power in industrial systems. - Reduced interference, consistent performance: Multi-layer aluminum foil braid shield and twisted pair construction minimize electromagnetic interference for high-speed, stable data transmission. - Built for harsh environments: IP67-rated, oil- and abrasion-resistant jacket with flame retardant properties lets you use the cable in drag chains, outdoor installations, and heavy industrial automation. - Broad compatibility: Directly interfaces vision systems, barcode readers, scanners, and cameras to switches, routers, PCs and PLCs without adapters. What it does and why you need it - Connects M12-equipped industrial cameras and barcode readers to standard RJ45 network devices using a single rugged CAT6 assembly, avoiding multiple adapters or fragile field splices. - Maintains signal integrity in electrically noisy or mechanically demanding environments so cameras and scanners keep communicating reliably with controllers and host systems. - Eliminates repeated cable failures in automation lines by offering abrasion, oil, UV, and bending resistance while preserving flexibility for moving applications. Compatibility and typical devices Compatible with Cognex in sight 5000 7000 Micro vision systems, Data Man 200 300 360 503 barcode reader, Checker 4G, ism1400, Omron MicroHawk F430-F camera / V430-F barcode reader, Microscan QX-870 scanner sensor camera models, and other M12 8-pin A-coded devices connecting to network switches, routers, PCs, PLCs and PoE injectors. Material and performance highlights - Cable type: CAT6, twisted pair, 24 AWG - Shielding: multi-layer aluminum foil + braid - Filling: cotton wire filling for mechanical stability - Jacket: black PVC, abrasion/oil/UV resistant, flame retardant - Mechanical: flexible, stretch resistant, suitable for drag chains - Environmental: waterproof and dust-proof to IP67, resistant to oxidation and heat - Connectors: M12 8-pin male A-coded to standard RJ45 Use scenarios 1) Factory vision inspection: Connect a Cognex In-Sight camera directly to an industrial Ethernet switch in a production line. The shielded CAT6 link prevents EMI from nearby motors and provides reliable image transfer to the inspection host. 2) Barcode reader integration: Link a Data Man or Microscan scanner to a PLC over Ethernet while using PoE injector power. Durable jacket and IP67 protection allow installation near conveyors and washdown zones. 3) Mobile or outdoor equipment: Run the cable in drag chains or outdoor LED and CCTV installations where UV, oil, and bending resistance are required.
