1408635

Overview

Phoenix Contact part number 1408635 is a network cable designed for industrial automation environments. It supports PROFINET CAT5 and EtherCAT® CAT5 protocols at speeds up to 100 Mbps. The assembly features a straight M12 plug with D-coding on one end and an RJ45 connector on the other. It utilizes Advanced Shielding Technology for electromagnetic interference protection. The cable offers variable length options and carries IP67 ingress protection ratings for the M12 side and IP65 for the RJ45 side. Constructed from plastic materials, it incorporates SPEEDCON locking technology to ensure secure connections in demanding applications.

Feature Summary

• Supports PROFINET and EtherCAT communication standards
• Equipped with SPEEDCON locking mechanism

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific application requires the D-coded M12 configuration rather than A-coded variants. Confirm that the variable cable length meets the exact spatial requirements of the installation site. Ensure environmental conditions do not exceed the specified temperature ranges for the plastic housing materials. Check that the shielding requirements align with the electromagnetic environment of the target machinery.

Selection Notes

Select this component when integrating devices requiring both M12 and standard Ethernet interfaces within a single link. Consider the IP67 rating necessary for exposed industrial areas. Evaluate the need for 100 Mbps throughput against higher-speed alternatives if future-proofing is required. Assess the mechanical strain relief needs associated with the straight plug geometry.
