M12 connector for easy positioning of right-angle connectors

binder, Camarillo, Calif., has expanded its M12 product family with the addition of the positionable and lockable M12 male panel-mounted connector. Standard panel-mount connectors have a fixed contact insert, limiting the mating connector to a single fixed position. binder’s new M12 connector has a separate contact body, allowing it to be positioned exactly where users want the mating right-angle cable connector. This innovative feature allows users to keep the cable from obstructing other connections or devices on the panel. Additionally, the contact body is prewired with 24 AWG wires for fast and easy assembly, and available with 4, 5, or 8 contacts.
