DeviceNet Mini-Change 7/8 Trunk Gender Change Connector

Description

Introduction:

7/8-16UN refers to a threaded connection commonly used in industrial connectors. DeviceNet Mini-Change 7/8 Trunk Gender Change Connector has a male plug on one end and a female socket on the other end. It ensures reliable data, power, and signal transmission in automation and control systems, suitable for flexible and efficient network setups. It also supports many communication protocols such as DeviceNet, CAN Bus, Profibus, and NMEA2000. Premier Cable P/N: PCM-S-0394

Specification：

What is 7/8''-16 UNF?

7/8'': It refers to the outer diameter of the threaded portion, which is 7/8 inch.

6: It indicates the number of threads per inch (TPI) on the connector, which is 16 threads.

UNF: It stands for Unified National Fine, which refers to a fine thread standard used to describe the specification of fine threads. Compared to Unified National Coarse (UNC), the pitch between UNF threads is smaller, providing better tightening and sealing performance.

Introduction to Supported Communication Protocols:

7/8 connectors support a variety of communication protocols, such as DeviceNet, CANopen, Profinet, CC-Link, AS-Interface, CAN Bus, Profibus, and NMEA2000. Here is a brief introduction to some of them:

1. CAN Bus (Controller Area Network)

2. DeviceNet

DeviceNet is a communication protocol used in industrial automation and control systems. It is designed to facilitate communication and data transmission between devices such as sensors, actuators, and controllers in a networked environment.

DeviceNet usually uses the M12 connector, but it can also use other connectors such as 7/8-16UN.

3. NMEA 2000 (National Marine Electronics Association 2000)
