2TLA020056R2300 ABB M12-C1012 10m Cable M12-5 Female + Male

Why Choose the ABB 2TLA020056R2300 M12-C1012 Cable?

The ABB 2TLA020056R2300 is an M12-C1012 10 m connection cable with straight M12 5-pole female and male connectors, designed for compatible ABB industrial machine-safety equipment. Part of the ABB safety accessory range, this pre-terminated sensor-actuator cable provides a convenient plug-and-play connection between compatible M12 devices.

The M12-C1012 uses a shielded 5 × 0.34 mm² cable with a straight M12-5 female connector at one end and a straight M12-5 male connector at the other. ABB specifies that the cable shield is connected to pin 3 (0 V) on the male connector, providing the intended shielding arrangement for compatible safety-system installations.

With a 10 m cable length, nominal 24 V DC operating voltage and protection up to IP67/IP69K, the 2TLA020056R2300 provides a robust extension and interconnection solution for machine-mounted safety devices. Its factory-terminated design eliminates field connector assembly and supports straightforward installation, replacement and system expansion.

Key Advantages

• Factory-assembled 10 m M12 connection cable.
• Pre-terminated with M12 5-pole female and male connectors.
• Both M12 connectors use a straight orientation.
• 5 × 0.34 mm² tinned-copper conductors for compatible industrial safety connections.
• Shielded construction with the shield connected to pin 3 (0 V) at the male connector.
• IP67/IP69K protection supports demanding industrial installations.
• Male-to-female configuration makes the cable suitable for extending compatible M12-5 connections.
• Factory-fitted connectors reduce installation time and eliminate field termination of the cable ends.

Pre-Terminated M12 Extension Connectivity

The female-to-male configuration of the ABB M12-C1012 makes it suitable for extending connections between compatible M12-5 devices without requiring additional field-assembled connectors. This is particularly useful in machine-safety installations where sensors, reset devices, distribution accessories or other equipment must be positioned several metres apart.

Its 10 m shielded cable combines five 0.34 mm² tinned-copper conductors with robust moulded M12 connectors. ABB also specifies the M12-C1012 for compatible Eden safety sensor installations, making it a useful standard cable for new machine builds, retrofits, maintenance and replacement work.

Typical Applications

• ABB Eden safety sensor connections.
• Machine-safety sensor extension cabling.
• Safety reset and connection-device installations.
• Machine guarding and interlocking systems.
• Automated production and assembly machinery.
• Robot and automation safeguarding systems.
• Packaging, processing and material-handling equipment.
• Extension of compatible M12 5-pole industrial connections.
