Allen-Bradley 1585D-M4TBDM-30 Ethernet Media Patch Cord

Allen-Bradley 1585D-M4TBDM-30 Ethernet Media Patch Cord is a Micro D-Code, QD-style Ethernet media patch cord designed for industrial Ethernet networks. It uses four conductors (two pairs) in an unshielded 24 AWG Highflex TPE jacket and provides 100BASE-TX performance (100 Mbit/s). Each end uses a straight M12 D-Code male connector in Micro D-Code QD style, enabling quick mating in control panels and on production lines. The 30 in the part number denotes a 30-meter length, suitable for mid-range runs between devices such as PLCs, sensors, actuators, and industrial controllers that require M12 D-Code connectivity. This patch cord is part of Allen-Bradley’s Ethernet Media family, offered as a build-to-order cable length to suit specific installations. The teal jacket color helps identify M12 D-Code Ethernet media in crowded control cabinets, and the unshielded design pairs with standard shielded or unshielded Ethernet hardware depending on system requirements.
