5.2.2. M12 4-Socket LAN/Ethernet Connector

The LAN/Ethernet connector on Endurance®-Series side is a M12 4-socket connector type, D-
coded, suited for industrial Ethernet with IP67 protection rate and a screw retention feature. Via
the LAN/Ethernet connector the Endurance®-Series device can also be powered as a PD
(Powered Device) by a PSE (Power Sourcing Equipment) in a PoE (Power over Ethernet)
mode. In such operation mode a PoE injector or a PoE switch is needed. Refer to PoE standard
IEEE 802.3af, mode A, 10/100 Mbit mixed DC & data.

5.2.3. Accessory Cables and Terminal Block

As accessories for the Endurance®-Series devices there are two different communication
cables and a specific terminal block available. Both sensor cables can be ordered in several
cable lengths and two different ambient temperature ratings.
The sensor head is rated NEMA-4 (IEC 529, IP65).
Endcap must be securely installed to maintain proper sealing.
To prevent possible electrical shock, fire, or personal injury make sure
that the sensor is grounded before use.
5.2.3.1. M16 12-Conductor shielded cable
The 12-conductor shielded connecting cable is used to wire all the fundamental inputs and
outputs like RS485 interface, trigger input, relay contact, current input, current output and 24V
power supply wires to the Endurance®-Series sensor. The cable is equipped with an IP67 rated
