1408714

Overview

Phoenix Contact part number 1408714 is a network cable designed for industrial Ethernet applications. It supports Ethernet, PROFINET, and EtherCAT protocols at 100 Mbps. The assembly features a straight RJ45 plug on one end and a straight M8 connector with A-coding and IP67 rating on the other. The cable utilizes a shielded PROFINET drag chain CAT5 construction with 1x4xAWG22/7 conductors.

Feature Summary

• Supports high-speed data transmission for Ethernet, PROFINET, and EtherCAT networks
• Constructed with shielded PROFINET drag chain CAT5 cable for durability in dynamic environments
• Features an M8 connector with A-coding to ensure correct mating and IP67 protection

Applications

• Industrial Ethernet networking connections
• PROFINET fieldbus system integration
• EtherCAT automation network deployment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific cable length suffix required for the installation, as the base part number often denotes the connector configuration while length varies. Confirm that the M8 A-coded interface matches the device port. Ensure the shielded CAT5 specification meets the electromagnetic interference requirements of the target environment.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a direct connection between an RJ45 port and an M8 sensor or actuator is required. The A-coding on the M8 side restricts usage to specific signal types compatible with this coding scheme. The drag chain rated cable is suitable for moving machinery applications requiring flexibility and fatigue resistance.

Part Context

This network cable belongs to Phoenix Contact's NBC-M series, which provides pre-assembled solutions for connecting standard Ethernet interfaces to circular M8 connectors. These assemblies simplify wiring by eliminating the need for manual crimping and termination, ensuring consistent signal integrity across the link.

Replacement Considerations

Substitutes must match the RJ45 to M8 A-coded configuration and the 100 Mbps speed capability. Verify that any alternative maintains the same shielded CAT5 construction and IP67 rating on the M8 end to preserve environmental sealing and electrical performance.
