Angled PCB connector offers space-saving benefits
A two-piece angled printed-circuit board connector has been introduced by HARTING which allows a standard M12 circular connector to be mounted in a configuration that allows access to space-saving switches.
The new M12 2-piece angled connector is available in the male and female variants as well as with A and D coding, making it possible to implement a variety of flexible configurations for supplying power to switches and other devices.
The codings incorporate power-supply links and fast Ethernet communication at up to 100Mbit/s.
With its 90° angled construction, the M12 circular connector is suited to mounting on printed circuit boards which are placed flat in a rack or a device, where it offers space-saving benefits.
