OP-87231 Keyence M8 Connector Cable | 4-Pin 10m Straight Fiber Sensor Connection

OP-87231 Keyence M8 Connector Cable – Extended Reach Industrial Connectivity

The OP-87231 is a high-performance M8 connector cable manufactured by Keyence, designed to provide reliable signal transmission for digital sensors and fiber optic amplifiers. Featuring a 10-meter length, this cable is specifically engineered for large-scale automation systems where sensors are located at significant distances from the main control cabinet or PLC.

Superior Durability for Long-Distance Routing

Constructed with a heavy-duty jacket, the OP-87231 is built to maintain signal integrity over its entire 10-meter span. It is designed to resist the physical and electrical stresses common in industrial environments, including mechanical pulling, vibration, and electromagnetic interference. Its robust construction ensures that high-speed data from sensors like the FS-N series reaches the controller without degradation.

Technical Specifications and Connectivity

• Connector Type: Standard M8 4-pin female connector.

• Cable Orientation: Straight connector design for efficient cable management.

• Length: 10 meters (32.8 feet), ideal for long-run installations.

• Jacket Material: Industrial-grade PVC, resistant to common factory oils and chemical exposure.

• Compatibility: Fully compatible with Keyence M8-style sensor units, including the FS-N12CP expansion modules and LR-Z series laser sensors.

Secure Mechanical Locking

The OP-87231 features a precision-machined threaded nut that ensures a gas-tight, vibration-proof connection to the sensor head. This secure interface provides an IP-rated seal, protecting the electrical contacts from moisture, dust, and debris. This mechanical reliability is critical for preventing intermittent downtime in continuous manufacturing processes.
