Endpoint map

Start with what is physically represented

Two-way Ethernet data between documented M12 X-coded and RJ45 interfaces; no one-way converter is present.

Choose for the actual job

Bridge a specified X-coded industrial Ethernet connection to its designated RJ45 port using a finished 2m assembly.

ConstructionDocumented

Four twisted pairs, AWG26/7 S/FTP copper, PUR outer jacket; retain the exact 94F option.

Evidence: C986A

Fallback / lower modesConditional

Lower link rates depend on supported PHYs and configuration at each endpoint; changing coding does not add protocol conversion.

Evidence: C986A

Environment and handlingConditional

The catalog PDF has distinct M12, RJ45 and cable environmental fields. Protection depends on documented mating; a bare unplugged connector is not declared sealed.

Evidence: C986A

Worked selection example

Where both industrial port manuals specify this X-coded-to-RJ45 CAT6A path, use the 2m article and check cable routing against the fixed or moving condition.

Common confusion: D-coded four-position industrial cords are a different selection even if the M12 thread looks familiar.

Next check: Match port coding and product number, record the cable's fixed/moving route and consult the endpoint's required mating/enclosure conditions.

Capability ledger

Six questions kept separate

DataDocumented

CAT6A Ethernet/CC-Link IE up to 10Gb/s is stated for this exact assembly.

Evidence: C986A

Power / chargingConditional

The sheet's nominal 48VAC/60VDC, 0.5A interface ratings do not establish an arbitrary power-feed or PoE negotiation.

Evidence: C986A

VideoNot Applicable

No native display transport represented.

ConversionPassive

Four twisted pairs, AWG26/7 S/FTP copper, PUR outer jacket; retain the exact 94F option.

Evidence: C986A

Length / reachDocumented

2m exact article. Fixed and moving bend requirements differ; do not infer a continuous-flex service life.

Evidence: C986A

Markings / certificationConditional

1407480, X coding and CAT6A/94F identify the published assembly; color is not the compatibility decision.

Evidence: C986A

Explicit unknowns
  • No physical sample, electrical/optical measurement or hardware interoperability test was performed.
  • Match port coding and product number, record the cable's fixed/moving route and consult the endpoint's required mating/enclosure conditions.
