M12 5 Pin Male Female Shielded Cable for Actuator Sensor HangTon 5M

Description

Product Overview

The M12 5 Pin Male Female Actuator Sensor Signal Shielded Cable is engineered for demanding industrial applications where signal fidelity and durability are paramount. Constructed with a high‑quality PVC jacket, the cable houses five 24 AWG conductors that are individually insulated to prevent cross‑talk and maintain clean data transmission. The outer braid of copper shield provides excellent protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI), ensuring that sensitive sensor and actuator signals remain stable even in electrically noisy environments.

Each connector features a gold‑plated contact surface, delivering low contact resistance and long‑term reliability. The M12 A‑coded aviation‑style connector includes a robust metal threaded collar and a protective plastic cover, guaranteeing a secure, vibration‑resistant fit that meets the rigorous standards of DeviceNet, CANopen, IO Link, and Profibus networks. The 5‑meter length offers flexibility for a wide range of machine layouts while keeping cable management simple.

Designed for compatibility with a broad spectrum of industrial devices, this cable supports both male‑to‑female and female‑to‑male configurations, making it a versatile choice for system integrators and maintenance technicians. The cable’s compliance with IEC standards for shielding and conductor sizing ensures it can be deployed in hazardous locations without compromising safety.

Key specifications include a 2 × 2 × 2 inches package size, a weight of 3.53 oz, and a product model number of 1330535646367. The cable is manufactured by HangTon Connect, a trusted brand known for delivering high‑performance connectivity solutions for automation and control systems.

Usage

In modern manufacturing plants, the M12 shielded cable is commonly used to connect proximity sensors, limit switches, and rotary encoders to programmable logic controllers (PLCs). Its robust construction makes it ideal for mounting on robotic arms, conveyor belts, and CNC machines where constant motion and vibration are present. The cable’s EMI shielding is especially valuable in environments with high‑power drives, variable frequency drives (VFDs), and heavy machinery that generate substantial electrical noise.

For machine vision applications, the cable provides a reliable link between cameras and illumination units, ensuring that high‑resolution image data is transmitted without distortion. In process automation, the cable can be employed to interconnect field devices in distributed control systems (DCS) and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) networks, supporting real‑time monitoring and control of critical parameters.

Because the cable meets the stringent requirements of industrial networking protocols, it is also suitable for use in harsh outdoor installations, such as oil and gas refineries, chemical plants, and mining operations. The PVC jacket resists oil, chemicals, and temperature extremes, while the gold‑plated contacts maintain performance over long service intervals.
