CONEC delivers flexible solutions for
Industry 4.0 environments
The ongoing shift toward decentralized automation driven by Industry 4.0 concepts places high demands on modern
electrical connectivity. What’s needed are flexible, robust, and customizable solutions that ensure reliable
transmission of signals, data, and power directly at the machine and in the field.

To meet these requirements, CONEC offers a comprehensive portfolio of accessories and connectivity solutions
designed for today’s advanced automation environments.
A key component of this portfolio is the CONEC I/O distribution boxes, which provide a structured and practical
way to distribute input and output signals at the field level. The offering ranges from passive distribution
boxes for straightforward signal routing to active I/O boxes with integrated electronics that enable direct
communication with controllers via fieldbus or Industrial Ethernet. Compact housing designs, rugged
construction, and user‑friendly connection technology support quick installation, minimize wiring effort, and
ensure high operational reliability – even in demanding industrial conditions.
The I/O solutions are complemented by a wide range of compatible connectors that ensure standards‑compliant,
reliable, and future‑proof integration across a variety of applications. With this broad offering, CONEC
positions itself as a provider of comprehensive connectivity concepts for decentralized automation.
Efficient field‑level wiring
IP67‑rated distribution systems enable cost‑effective, well‑organized, and efficient wiring of sensors and
actuators directly in the field. They are used wherever distributed signals must be connected quickly and
reliably to higher‑level controllers. Their rugged IP67 design makes them ideal for harsh industrial
environments and supports structured, economical, and maintenance‑friendly field wiring. Individual signals can
be connected either through fixed cables or standardized connector interfaces. This significantly simplifies
installation, reduces potential error sources, and increases flexibility for system expansion, modification, or
maintenance.
Junction systems
The CONEC product portfolio includes Y-splitters from M12x1 to M12x1 as well as M12x1 to M8x, each available in
4-, 5-, or 8-pin A-coded versions. Additional options include 5-pin A-coded M12x1-to-M12x1 Duo-splitters. These
products are offered in various cable lengths, including 0.3 m, 0.6 m, 1.5 m, and 3 m.
The range is further complemented by T-splitters with attached cables and M12x1 connectors in 4-, 5-, or 8-pin
A-coded configurations.
These versions are also available in different cable lengths – 0.3 m and 0.6 m – to meet
specific installation requirements.
