8-Pole Y-Coded M12 Hybrid Connection OptionsUse the connection type below to identify the appropriate Lumberg Automation Y-coded M12 hybrid part-number family for the installation.
🔎 Understanding the 922-Series Part Numbers
The 8Y designation identifies the 8-pole Y-coded M12 hybrid connection. On cable assemblies, /* M represents the selected cable length. Confirm the connector type and required cable length before ordering the exact configuration. Y-Coded M12 Hybrid Quick ReferenceWhy Use a Hybrid M12 Power & Data Connection?A hybrid M12 connection allows power and Ethernet communication to reach compatible machine-mounted equipment through one cable instead of routing separate power and data cables. This can reduce the number of cable runs around a machine, simplify connections at decentralized I/O equipment and conserve connection space where multiple cables would otherwise be required.
1. Match the Interface
Verify that the equipment uses an 8-pole Y-coded M12 hybrid interface. Other M12 coding types are keyed differently and serve different applications.
2. Choose the Connection
Select a male-to-female cordset for connections between compatible devices, or choose a single-ended male connection when the opposite cable end will be terminated elsewhere.
3. Select the Receptacle
RSHS male and RKHS female receptacle versions provide additional options for integrating the Y-coded hybrid interface into compatible equipment.
4. Verify Electrical Requirements
Confirm the voltage, current, data rate and mating interface required by both devices before selecting the final 922-series configuration.
Where Are Y-Coded M12 Hybrid Connectors Used?Lumberg Automation Y-coded M12 hybrid cables are suited to decentralized automation systems that require Ethernet communication and device power at the same connection point. They can be used with compatible IO-Link masters, distributed I/O equipment and other machine-mounted network devices. Combining power and data is especially useful on modular machinery, conveyors and compact automation systems where reducing cable quantity can simplify routing and installation.
⚙️ Selection Tip
An M12 connector's outside size alone does not determine compatibility. Confirm Y coding, 8-pole configuration, connector gender, electrical ratings and Ethernet requirements before making the connection. The mechanical coding is important because M12 connector families are designed for different power, signal and data applications. |
