M8 Connector Cable Assembly for Compact Industrial Applications

As a specialized M8 connector cable assembly manufacturer, OurPCB delivers compact 8mm circular connectors for space-constrained sensor applications. Our cable assembly expertise covers 3 to 8 pin configurations with A-coded and D-coded options, providing IP67 environmental protection in a 33% smaller package than M12 connectors.

M8 connectors are ideal when space is at a premium. Standard A-coded versions handle sensor and actuator connections (3-8 pins), while D-coded M8 connectors support 100 Mbps Industrial Ethernet in compact form factors. Snap-in variants enable quick connection without threading.

Applications include compact proximity sensors, photoelectric sensors, miniature actuators, and tight-fit installations in packaging machinery. Robotic end effectors and grippers benefit from M8's small footprint, as do test fixtures in electronics manufacturing.

Combined with circular connectors and Phoenix Contact industrial solutions, we provide complete sensor connectivity. Our industrial automation cables feature PVC and PUR jacket options for different flexibility and chemical resistance requirements.

We manufacture M8-to-M8, M8-to-M12, M8-to-open-ended, and custom configurations. 100% electrical testing ensures reliable sensor connections. Contact us for M8 cable assembly quotes.

Common Questions

M8 Connector FAQ

M8 connectors are preferred when space is limited. They're 33% smaller than M12 and suitable for compact sensors and tight installations. M12 offers more pin options and higher current capacity when space permits.

M8 connectors are available in 3, 4, 5, 6, and 8 pin configurations. Most sensor applications use 3 or 4 pins. Higher pin counts are used for analog sensors or multi-function connections.

Yes, M8 connectors provide IP67 protection when properly mated. This makes them suitable for industrial environments with moisture, dust, and wash-down requirements.
