Mating Cycle Life & Performance Impact of Frequent Mating for M12 A-coded Connectors

Standard Mating Life Index

  • Rated Mating Life:≥ 500 Cycles , the standard version of M12 A-coded connectors reach the industrial standard plugging and unplugging durability index, fully meet the conventional installation and maintenance use demand.

Performance Impact of Frequent Mating & Maintenance Suggestion

Stable Core Performance In Rated Cycles

Within the rated plugging and unplugging times, there will be no obvious attenuation of core performance such as contact resistance and IP protection grade, to ensure stable and reliable signal transmission and physical connection.

Performance Risk After Exceeding Life

Unstable signal transmission and poor contact problems may occur after exceeding the rated mating life, which will affect the normal operation of the equipment. Timely replacement of the connector is recommended.

Technical Note: Standard plugging and unplugging operation can effectively maintain the service life of the connector; violent insertion and extraction will accelerate the wear of pins and reduce the actual plugging and unplugging cycle.
