Tripp Lite M12 X-Code Cat6 1G UTP CMR-LP Ethernet Cable (M12 M/RJ45 M), IP68, PoE, Blue, 2 m (6.6 ft.), TAA

Overview

The Tripp Lite NM12-602-02M-BL is a Cat6 Ethernet cable designed to provide robust and reliable network connections in challenging industrial environments. It features an M12 X-Code connector on one end and a standard RJ45 connector on the other, enabling seamless integration between industrial equipment and conventional network devices. With support for Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 1 Gbps and Power over Ethernet (PoE) up to 60 watts, this 2-meter cable efficiently delivers both data and power through a single connection.

Its IP68 rating ensures protection against dust and water, allowing the cable to remain submerged in up to 1.5 meters of water for 60 minutes without performance loss. The durable blue PVC jacket not only safeguards the cable but also aids in easy identification among other cables, making it well suited for industrial settings such as factories, railways, and machine shops.
