M8 Connectors

ATTEND M8 Circular Connectors and Single Pair Ethernet SPE Connectors

ATTEND M8 circular connectors provide A-coded solutions for signal and power connectivity, alongside Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) connectors and cable assemblies designed for industrial Ethernet applications. The product range includes multiple pin configurations, PCB mounting styles, field-installable connectors, and cable assemblies for industrial automation, sensor and actuator connections, fieldbus communication, and industrial networking equipment.

ATTEND A-coded M8 connectors are available in 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 8-pin configurations, with current ratings from 1.5 A to 3 A and voltage ratings ranging from 30 VAC/DC to 50 VAC/60 VDC. Designed in accordance with IEC 61076-2-104, these IP67-rated connectors operate from -40°C to +85°C and support reliable signal and power connectivity in compact industrial equipment.

ATTEND M8 SPE connectors and cable assemblies offer 2-pin and 4-pin hybrid configurations, including PCB-mounted connectors and cable assembly options. Supporting IEEE 802.3 BASE-T1 communication, selected solutions are designed in accordance with IEC 63171-5 or IEC 63171-6 requirements. The series covers data transmission applications from 10 Mbps to 1 Gbps, while hybrid configurations integrate data connectivity with dedicated power contacts for industrial sensing, robotics, and smart factory equipment.
