Overview
The Allen-Bradley 889D-F4NEDM-1 is a DC Micro (M12) cordset patchcord cable from the Bulletin 889 series. This 1-meter cable features a 4-pin straight female connector on one end and a straight male connector on the other, making it ideal for linking proximity sensors, limit switches, photoelectric sensors, and other field devices to PLC input/output modules or I/O hubs. The unshielded PVC jacket in red identifies safety-critical applications while maintaining IEC color coding standards.
