Profinet IO is an IO coupler that uses industrial Ethernet Profinet communication, and is connected hand in hand through a network cable.

When it comes to network cables, our first impression is the one with RJ45 crystal head. No matter it is Cat 5 network cable, Cat 5e, Cat 6, or Cat 6, the connectors are all crystal heads except for the different materials of the net cables.

So, is all Profinet IO connected through RJ45 network cable?

Not all, considering the safety and reliability of the bus communication, except that the connectors at both ends are RJ45 crystal plugs, there are the following types:

1. IP67 M12 D-Code male to SF / UTP RJ45 plug network cable

2. IP67 M12 D-Code female to SF / UTP RJ45 plug network cable

3. IP67 M12 D-Code male to SF / UTP male network cable, etc.
