Honeywell 51195153-008 Automation Cable

The Honeywell 51195153-008, also cataloged as the 51195153-008 Automation Cable, provides a multi-drop physical connection between industrial automation equipment. The assembly uses six M12 connector drops on a 1.5 meter cable with 6-inch (152 mm) pitch. Metallic shielding is incorporated into the cable construction for controlled signal routing, with data transfer specified up to 1 Gbps.

Hardware Specifications

M12 Multi-Drop Signal Connection

The 51195153-008 uses six M12 connector drops arranged at a 6-inch (152 mm) pitch along a 1.5 meter cable assembly. This physical arrangement provides multiple connection points while maintaining a defined branch spacing. The M12 interfaces provide the mechanical connection between the cable assembly and compatible field devices or network components.

The cable is specified for operation from -40 deg C to +85 deg C and carries an IP67 environmental rating. The metallic shielding forms part of the cable construction and should be maintained continuously through installation to avoid unnecessary exposure to electrical interference.

The specified data transfer rate is up to 1 Gbps. Actual communication performance remains dependent on the connected equipment, interface configuration, cable routing, connector condition, and the applicable network specification.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How many device drops are provided by the 51195153-008?

A: The cable assembly provides 6 drops using M12 connectors.

Q: What is the specified cable operating temperature range?

A: The specified operating range is -40 deg C to +85 deg C.

Q: Does the cable include shielding?

A: Yes. The supplied specification identifies a metallic shielding layer within the high-grade polymer cable construction.

Field Installation Guidelines

Install the cable so that the six M12 connection points remain mechanically accessible and are not subjected to unnecessary tensile or bending loads. Maintain the specified 6-inch (152 mm) drop pitch when positioning connected devices.

Route the cable separately from high-energy power conductors where practical. Avoid parallel routing adjacent to motor leads, switching conductors, or other sources of electrical interference. Do not damage, cut, or unnecessarily expose the metallic shielding during installation.

Verify that each M12 connector is fully seated and mechanically secured before commissioning. Maintain the connector sealing surfaces in clean condition to preserve the specified IP67 environmental protection.

Before applying network traffic, inspect the complete cable assembly for damaged insulation, connector deformation, shield discontinuity, or excessive mechanical stress. Confirm that the connected devices use compatible M12 interfaces and network signaling requirements.
