General Description

These M8 breakout boards are part of the BRKQ series, which provides a clean and simple solution for terminating wires at a connector through a panel or enclosure wall. These boards are great for making machine network connections, connecting external sensors, connecting human interface devices, and neatly transitioning cabling through an enclosure.

This board has a 3-pin or 4-pin, A-coded M8 connector that brings all signals lines plus shield out to screw terminals. It is available with either a male or female connector.

A breakout board is sometimes referred to as a "transition module", "terminal board", "terminal block", "breakout box", "breakout adapter", "terminator", or "interface module".

For male connectors, the panel nut is size M8.
