New! ... Field wireable M8 and M12 connectors and T-couplers

Applications
  • Use to make custom patch cable lengths from existing cables or bulk wire
  • Turn a prewired sensor into a quick disconnect
  • Terminate field devices on an I/O block
  • Use T Splitters with our ZIPport modules to bring multiple sensor signals into one port

Insulation Displacement Connection (IDC)
