PCAN-Cable M12
CAN Adapter Cable from D-Sub Socket to M12 Circular Connector
M12 circular connectors are robust and offer increased protection against environmental influences. They have thus established as a connection option to CAN buses for challenging operating conditions.
The standard NMEA 2000® from the National Marine Electronics Association specifies a manufacturer-independent communication via CAN on boats and ships and implies the use of certain M12 connectors.
The PCAN-Cable M12 routes the CAN lines of the D-Sub socket to an M12 circular connector. Additional lines for Shield and power supply were added according to the NMEA 2000® specification. This enables access with PEAK CAN interfaces.
