Description
Last updated: 7 September 2026
This M8 5 pin connects to a USB Type-C adapter cable.
Overview
5-pin M8 male to USB Type-C male adapter cable. IEC 61076-2-104, USB 2.0, IP67 on M8 end, TPU overmould. For industrial sensor diagnostics and USB-to-busfield bridging.
Key Features
- Standards-compliant connectors — IEC 61076-2-104 (M8 family) and / or IEC 61076-2-101 (M12 A-Coded family), ensuring mechanical and electrical interchangeability with field-installed hardware.
- IP67 mated protection — fully sealed at the coupling to block dust ingress and temporary water immersion (1 m / 30 min).
- Threaded M8 / M12 coupling — vibration-resistant 8 mm or 12 mm thread lock prevents accidental drop-outs in factory environments.
- Gold-plated brass contacts, brass nickel-plated coupling nut — corrosion resistance and low contact resistance (≤5 mΩ).
- PA contact carrier / TPU overmould — robust mechanical integrity and strain relief at the mould / cable transition.
- PVC or PUR jacket options — PUR variants add oil, coolant and UV resistance for wash-down or outdoor use.
- Wide operating range — typically -25 to +85 ℃ with >100 mating cycles.
Typical Applications
- Industrial sensors and actuators (proximity, photoelectric, limit switches, encoders)
- Factory automation, robotic cells, AGV / AMR power and signal links
- Machine vision panels, I/O modules, distributed field I/O blocks
- Food & beverage, packaging, printing, automotive assembly lines
- Outdoor / IP67 field installations and diagnostic tethering

Installation Notes
- Confirm pin coding (A-Coded for sensors / signals; never cross with D-Coded Ethernet or X-Coded Cat6A cabling).
- Tighten the threaded coupling by hand (typical torque 0.4 – 0.6 Nm for M8, 0.8 – 1.0 Nm for M12). Do not use tools that can over-torque and crack the housing.
- Cap unused M8 / M12 ports to preserve IP rating when unmated (IP ratings apply to the mated pair).
- Minimum bend radius typically 5 x cable OD (10x for continuous flex / drag-chain).
