Cable / adapter note · not an individual product specification
The useful distinction
Understand the requirement.
Connect a documented 100Mb/s PROFINET/EtherCAT industrial endpoint with a D-coded M12 interface to its specified RJ45 path. [C985A]
Bounded facts, visible unknowns
Specifications and limits
Phoenix 1408609 — D-coded industrial Ethernet facts and limitations
Documented task / mode
PROFINET/EtherCAT CAT5, 100Mb/s for this configured family and option; not an X-coded 10Gb/s assembly. [C985A]
Construction / length
Opened option 93B uses shielded PVC stranded star-quad copper, 1×4×AWG22/7; exact selected cable option matters. The opened page offers 0.2–85m configurable length for its displayed option; an earlier search extract said 100m. Select an exact configured part and current sheet before procurement. [C985A]
Verified device list
Not included. Check exact device and accessory documentation.
A boundary, not an omission to guess around.
Opened option 93B uses shielded PVC stranded star-quad copper, 1×4×AWG22/7; exact selected cable option matters. M12 technical data lists IP65/IP67, while the RJ45 technical data says IP20 despite headline IP67 wording. Treat the exposed RJ45 environmental scope as unresolved; no wet-location recommendation.
Before you connect
What to check
Resolve RJ45 enclosure/protection with Phoenix for the exact assembly; obtain the generated configuration sheet and endpoint manuals.
Check condition with power disconnected where the equipment guidance permits; stop for damage, heat or unknown powered connections.
Keep published source support separate from physical test results.
Industrial Ethernet data is two-way; socket and plug roles describe the connector, not one-way signal flow. A four-position D-coded path does not become four-pair gigabit copper by changing the RJ45 end.
Worked selection example
For a documented D-coded 100Mb/s controller path, choose the configured cable option and length; check the actual RJ45 enclosure and mate before considering environmental suitability.
What to observe next
Resolve RJ45 enclosure/protection with Phoenix for the exact assembly; obtain the generated configuration sheet and endpoint manuals.

PROFINET/EtherCAT CAT5, 100Mb/s for this configured family and option; not an X-coded 10Gb/s assembly. Nominal connector electrical fields are 48VAC/60VDC and 1A; these are component ratings, not PoE detection, negotiated power or a wiring instruction. Opened option 93B uses shielded PVC stranded star-quad copper, 1×4×AWG22/7; exact selected cable option matters. The opened page offers 0.2–85m configurable length for its displayed option; an earlier search extract said 100m. Select an exact configured part and current sheet before procurement.
