1.
By default the body and cable screen of the M12 Ethernet connectors are insulated from the
metal body of the NEMA module and mains ground. This is in accordance to The
EtherNet/IP™ specification for use in industrial automation systems using EtherNet/IP™.
2.
If there is a requirement to connect the M12 body and cable screen (A) to Mains earth for
EMC or Ethernet TCP reasons then the default plastic M12 mounting collar (MN2934T) can be
replaced by a stainless steel version (MN2935T). Ensure the M12 O-ring and sealing washer
are seated correctly to maintain IP66 sealing.
