Phoenix Contact M12 Y-Coded Hybrid Connectors and Cables for Power with Ethernet (PwE) are designed to provide more flexible cabling in the networking field. Hybrid cabling is one of the simplest possible forms of transmitting data and power. Unlike power over Ethernet (PoE), with PwE, the power supply and data transmission are implemented via separate wires in a single shared hybrid cable. This design provides Cat5e data at speeds of up to 100Mbps and power up to 30V at 6A. Phoenix Contact M12 series saves a device connection, which reduces the space required and connection time for cabling.
