Overview
The Eaton CSNS3A3CY2402 is a photoelectric sensor connector cable engineered for reliable M8 signal connectivity in industrial control and automation environments. This cable features a nano-style straight female 3-wire connector with brown/blue/black wiring, 24 AWG conductors, PVC jacket, and 100 Vdc rating. The flying-leads design enables direct termination to control modules, PLCs, and barrier-strip connections without requiring additional adapters.
