Cables sold by the meter, adapters, connectors for PCBs or for field assembly

Plug connectors from Beckhoff for field assembly are designed for fast, safe and convenient installation in the plant. A good match between yard goods and connectors ensures optimal connection. Each connector comes with a structured and simple assembly instruction, which is also available for download. As an extension to the written instructions, installation videos with useful tips are also available for some products.

The intuitive Poka-Yoke principle for error-free assembly was applied to all field-attachable connectors in compliance with the normative specifications. The freely configurable connectors meet the latest norms, standards, and guidelines and have numerous approvals such as UL/CSA (UL2236 and UL2237).

In addition to the field-configurable connectors, Beckhoff offers T and Y adapters, terminating resistors and inverting adapters (gender changer) for a wide range of connections in the field.
