Description
The National Instruments M125F-M125M Power Cable is a critical component designed for supplying power to FieldDAQ devices. It is identified by part numbers 786173-0R3, 786173-01, and 786173-02, ensuring a range of options for specific requirements. This cable features an M12 Female to M12 Male connector type, which facilitates a secure connection between devices.
This power cable is specifically tailored for use with National Instruments FieldDAQ devices that are equipped with a 5-pin M12 power connector. Its design allows for efficient daisy-chaining, enabling users to connect two FieldDAQ devices to a single power supply, thereby reducing the need for multiple power sources and simplifying setup.
The Power IN Connector, which is an M12 Male connector, is found on the FieldDAQ device and is used to receive power from an external power source. Conversely, the Power OUT Connector, an M12 Female, is also located on the FieldDAQ device and allows the male connector of the M125F-M125M Power Cable to be plugged in, thereby enabling the interconnectivity feature that is pivotal for powering multiple devices efficiently.
