1408686

Overview

Phoenix Contact part number 1408686 is a pre-assembled Ethernet network cable designed for industrial automation environments. It features an RJ45 plug with straight orientation on one end and an M12 female socket with angled orientation on the other. The connector utilizes SPEEDCON technology and carries D coding, ensuring IP67 ingress protection ratings. The cable supports Ethernet CAT5 transmission speeds of up to 100 Mbps. Constructed with copper as the transmission medium, it operates within nominal voltage limits of 48 V AC and 60 V DC, with a nominal current capacity of 1 A.

Feature Summary

• Features SPEEDCON technology for tool-free connection and disconnection
• Provides IP67 environmental protection for the M12 connector interface
• Utilizes Advanced Shielding Technology for signal integrity
• Constructed with halogen-free PUR jacket material

Applications

• Industrial Ethernet fieldbus connections
• Sensors and actuators in automated machinery
• Control cabinet networking interfaces
• PROFINET and EtherNet/IP device linking

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix when purchasing, as the base model allows for variable cable types and lengths. Confirm that the required length matches the available configuration options. Ensure compatibility with D-coded M12 ports. Check current supply status as availability may fluctuate due to restricted supply conditions reported by distributors.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed-length Ethernet link between an RJ45 port and an M12 device is required. The angled M12 connector facilitates space-constrained installations. Verify that the application environment requires halogen-free materials and IP67 sealing. Ensure the system voltage does not exceed the rated 48 V AC or 60 V DC limits.

Part Context

This cable belongs to the NBC series of pre-assembled network cables from Phoenix Contact. It is distinct from standard patch cords by its ruggedized M12 interface and industrial-grade shielding. The product integrates seamlessly into Phoenix Contact's I/O and sensor/actuator line ecosystem, providing reliable data transmission for industrial control systems.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Phoenix Contact NBC-FRD-R4QC models with matching D coding and IP67 ratings. Verify that any replacement maintains the same SPEEDCON mechanism and RJ45 straight-to-M12 angled configuration. Cross-reference pin assignments to ensure electrical continuity.
