The accessories that wire up an IO-Link or Industrial Ethernet network — M12 connectors and sockets, DIN-style cable assemblies, RJ45 Ethernet patch cables, multi-pole connector groups. NorTrade carries the Norgren NC-series cable, plug and connector accessories that pair with the IO-Link master + I/O module range. Specify the cable length, gender and shield class at order time.

A-coded is the standard for IO-Link and digital I/O (4 or 5 pin, sensor and actuator wiring). D-coded is for industrial Ethernet (4-pin, 100 Mbit). The two are mechanically different so they cannot be cross-mated by mistake — pick the coding to match the master / device port.
M12 D-coded is the standard for industrial-grade Ethernet because the screw-locked connector survives vibration and the IP-rated body works in dirty environments. RJ45 is fine for control-cabinet wiring between the IO-Link master and an industrial Ethernet switch. To transition from M12-D to RJ45, use a D-coded M12 open-ended cable terminated with the wireable NC-RJ450 connector.
Most NC-series accessories ship pre-assembled in standard stock lengths — this gives the lowest failure rate at the connector joint. Field-attachable variants (124MS, 125FS) are available when an exact cable length matters and only the connector end is needed.
Order the next standard length above the measured distance plus 10–20% for routing slack. Typical IO-Link cable lengths in stock: 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 5 m. For very long runs the IO-Link standard limits the distance from slave to master to 20 m; if you need more, place the master closer to the slave.
