Installation is safe and tool-free with a simple plug-in action, even in confined spaces and spaces with a high cabling density. Compared to conventional screw connections, the connector installation times can be reduced by up to 80 percent.

The M12 push-pull connectors are available in different versions, including straight and angled versions as well as male and female versions. They have internal and external locking, which enables flying connections. There are both shielded and unshielded versions. Advanced Shielding Technology enables a reliable shield connection for the shielded connectors.

The IP65 and IP67 degrees of protection ensure high reliability and durability. With the standard-compliant design in accordance with IEC 61076-2-010, the product range is also characterised by a high level of future-proofing.
