1405905

Overview

Phoenix Contact part number 1405905 is a sensor and actuator cable assembly designed for industrial automation environments. It features a straight M8 male connector with A-coding on one end and a right-angled M12 female socket connector on the other. The cable supports four positions and allows for customizable lengths ranging from 0.2 meters to 85.0 meters. The housing material is black polyvinyl chloride (PVC). This configuration facilitates connections between field devices and control systems requiring mixed connector interfaces.

Feature Summary

• Combines straight M8 male and right-angled M12 female connectors in a single assembly
• Supports variable cable lengths for flexible installation requirements
• Utilizes A-coding for correct mating compatibility
• Constructed with durable PVC jacketing for industrial use

Applications

• Connecting sensors to PLC input modules via M12 interfaces
• Actuator signal transmission in automated machinery
• Industrial control cabinet wiring with mixed connector standards

Procurement Notes

Verify the required cable length during ordering, as this product supports variable customization within the specified range. Confirm that the M8 male A-coded and M12 female right-angled configuration matches the existing system interface requirements. Ensure the application environment is compatible with the standard PVC jacketing specifications provided by the manufacturer.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a transition from an M8 device interface to an M12 system interface is necessary. The right-angled M12 connector aids in space-constrained panel installations. Consider the variable length capability to minimize excess cabling. Verify that the four-position requirement aligns with the specific signal or power needs of the connected equipment.

Part Context

This component belongs to Phoenix Contact's sensor and actuator cable series, specifically the PLUSCON Field line. These cables are engineered for reliable data and power transmission in harsh industrial settings. The combination of M8 and M12 connectors addresses common integration challenges where legacy M8 devices connect to modern M12-based control architectures.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Users should verify compatibility with existing M8-to-M12 assemblies from other manufacturers based on pinout and coding standards.
