METZ CONNECT M12 X-coded Patch Cable 1m Cat.6A S/FTP PUR Green 142M2X1A010

The METZ CONNECT 142M2X1A010 is a high-performance M12 X-coded patch cable designed for industrial Ethernet applications. With a length of 1 meter and Cat.6A certification, it supports data rates up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet, making it ideal for PROFINET and EtherCAT networks. The cable features S/FTP shielding (PiMF) for excellent electromagnetic compatibility and a robust PUR jacket in green (RAL 6018) for durability in harsh environments.

Advantages

This cable offers reliable, high-speed data transmission in industrial settings. Its M12 X-coded connectors ensure secure mating with IP67 protection, while the PUR jacket provides resistance to oil, UV, and mechanical stress. The stranded copper conductors (AWG 26/7) offer flexibility for tight installations.

Suitable for

• Industrial Ethernet networks (PROFINET, EtherCAT)
