1543921

Overview

Phoenix Contact part number 1543921 is a pre-assembled M12 data cable designed for industrial automation networks. It features a male straight connector on one end and a female straight connector on the other, utilizing A-coding for standard signal transmission. The cable construction employs halogen-free PUR material for durability in demanding environments. This component supports communication protocols such as PROFINET and EtherNet/IP, providing reliable connectivity between field devices and control systems.

Feature Summary

• Utilizes robust halogen-free PUR jacketing for resistance to oils, chemicals, and mechanical wear.
• Features shielded twisted pair construction to ensure signal integrity against electromagnetic interference.
• Equipped with standardized M12 A-coded connectors for secure and repeatable mating cycles.

Applications

• PROFINET network connections
• EtherNet/IP device linking
• Industrial sensor and actuator wiring

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific connector orientation (straight vs. angled) and pin configuration against the system schematic before ordering. Confirm that the cable length and shielding requirements match the installation environment. Ensure compatibility with existing M12 ports to prevent interface mismatches during deployment.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a direct point-to-point Ethernet connection is required without intermediate junction boxes. Consider the environmental rating of the PUR jacket if the installation involves exposure to harsh industrial conditions or frequent movement. Verify that the A-coding aligns with the port type on the target device.

Part Context

This component belongs to Phoenix Contact's extensive portfolio of pre-wired M12 cables, which are essential for establishing fast and reliable fieldbus and Ethernet connections in automated machinery. These cables streamline installation by eliminating the need for on-site crimping or soldering, ensuring consistent performance across production lines.

Replacement Considerations

When replacing, ensure the substitute part maintains the same M12 A-coding and conductor cross-section. Verify that the replacement cable meets the same shielding standards and material specifications to preserve signal quality and environmental resilience in the existing setup.

FAQ

What coding does the M12 connector use?

The connector uses A-coding, which is standard for single-channel Ethernet applications like PROFINET and EtherNet/IP.

Is the cable shielded?

Yes, the cable features a shielded design to protect data signals from electromagnetic interference in industrial settings.
