Adafruit M12 D-Code 4-Pin Male Extension Cable 8 m Blue
An 8 m shielded Cat5 extension cable with M12 D-code 4-pin male connectors on both ends, screw-locked for IP67 protection in harsh industrial environments
- IP67-rated for harsh environments
- Screw-lock connectors resist shock and vibration
- Shielded Cat5 cable supports long-distance transmission
- Oil, UV and abrasion resistant jacket
- 8 m length connects industrial Ethernet devices
M12 D-Code Industrial Ethernet Cable
This 8-metre extension cable carries industrial Ethernet and Fieldbus signals between M12 D-Code devices. Both ends terminate in 4-pin male connectors with a screw-lock mechanism that resists vibration and shock. The blue jacket is rated IP67, so the link survives water jets, oil, UV exposure and repeated flexing in drag-chain applications.
Suited to automation and vehicle networks
Engineers wiring miniature sensors, industrial cameras or electric-vehicle systems will find the shielding and temperature tolerance match harsh-environment requirements. Installations that need a female socket, a different coding such as A-Code or X-Code, or a shorter run for desk-side patching should select another cable.
8-metre length with IP67 screw-lock plugs
The 8-metre reach and dual male D-Code connectors define the fit for point-to-point links in cabinets, on robots or along vehicle chassis. If the routing distance or connector gender does not match, the cable cannot be used as-is.

Questions about this item
What M12 D-code 4-pin female port must my device have to use this 8 m male-to-male extension cable?
The cable ends in M12 D-code 4-pin male connectors, so the device you are extending must provide a matching M12 D-code 4-pin female receptacle for a secure screw-lock connection.
Can this shielded Cat5 M12 cable run alongside 10 M, 15 M or 20 M legacy Ethernet segments without signal loss?
Yes, the double-shielded Cat5 construction maintains EMI protection across mixed lengths such as 10 M, 15 M or 20 M segments in industrial automation networks.
How do I confirm the IP67 seal is intact after tightening both M12 connectors on the 8 m blue cable?
Fully seat each male connector, tighten the screw-lock until the O-ring compresses, then verify the IP67 rating by checking for no ingress during a low-pressure wash-down test.
