M12 push-pull connectors for Ethernet
05 January 2026
NEW M12 push-pull network cables from Phoenix Contact enable simple and reliable high-speed data transmission for Ethernet applications.

The pre-assembled M12 push-pull connectors feature tool-free installation and comprehensive 360° shielding with Advanced Shielding Technology. This technology ensures interference-free data transmission even in electromagnetically charged environments.
The M12 push-pull connectors are available in different versions, including straight and angled versions as well as male and female versions. The X-coded cables support Ethernet CAT6A and feature a data transmission rate of up to 10 Gbps. The halogen-free cables are made of PUR, which makes them particularly robust and durable. With IP65 and IP67 degrees of protection, they are also ideally suited for use in demanding environments.
Another particular feature of the M12 push-pull connectors is the fast and secure connection. This enables easy handling even in confined spaces and spaces with a high wiring density. Compared to conventional screw connections, the installation time can be reduced by up to 80%. The IEC 61076-2-010 standardised product range also features a high degree of future-proofing.
