PROVERTHA Presents M12 Gender Changer

Simple and reliable connection of M12 cables with the same type of connectors

Pforzheim and Hanover – 10 April 2017 - At the Hannover Messe trade fair (Hall 11, Stand E28) from 24 to 28 April 2017, PROVERTHA is presenting a new M12 gender changer within the scope of its extensive M12 connector range. Gender changers make it possible to connect cables with the same type of connectors (female/female or male/male). The new M12 gender changer is available in versions for Industrial Ethernet, Profinet, DeviceNet/CAN bus and Profibus. It is available as B, D and A-coded versions (5 and 8 poles). The 360° shielding and the fully shielded housing in addition to the twisted crimp contacts go to ensure interference-free data transfer and excellent EMC. The ability to freely combine male and female connectors in addition to the coding on each connection side permit a high degree of flexibility. Eight different coding positions are possible. For deployment in harsh, demanding railway applications, the use of plastic materials with HL3 as per EN 45545-2 ensures maximum fire protection. Offering two fastening options, the new gender changer addresses a wide range of applications. By way of example, it can be fastened in wall ducts using a hexagon M16 nut. Wall mounting is also possible by means of a flange and two anchor points.
