Turck U-04993 Industrial Ethernet Cable Assembly

Turck U-04993 RSCD RJ45 440-2M is a double-ended Industrial Ethernet cable assembly that provides a reliable link between M12 D-coded devices and RJ45-enabled network gear over 2 meters of unshielded CAT5e TPE cable. It features a straight M12 × 1 Male, D-coded, 4-pin connector on one end and a straight RJ45 8-pin Male connector on the other, designed for factory automation environments requiring robust communication between PLCs, industrial Ethernet switches, distributed I/O, HMIs, machine vision equipment, and manufacturing networks. The cable uses 24 AWG tinned copper conductors within HDPE insulation and a teal TPE jacket, with a 6.1 mm cable diameter and a rated voltage of 42 V and current of 1.5 A. The M12 side provides IP67/IP68/IP69K protection when mated, while the RJ45 side is IP20, and the assembly supports static operating temperatures from -40 °C to +80 °C and dynamic operation from +5 °C to +80 °C. Cat5e Ethernet features are complemented by Flexlife®, C-Track approval, oil resistance, a -40 °C cold bend rating, UL 1685 FT4, and UL1061 flame rating, with approvals including UL 1863, CE, UKCA, and RoHS. Identified as U-04993, part RSCD RJ45 440-2M (Product #325682) from Turck, this cordset is suited for EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, conveyor automation, packaging machinery, robotic work cells, process automation, and distributed I/O networks where dependable Ethernet connectivity between field devices and network infrastructure is essential.
