Xmost M12 T-shape splitter with cable branch provides an inline male-to-female connection and an integrated cable connection in one molded housing. The male and female interfaces sit along the same axis, while the cable exits through the lower branch.
The catalog wiring diagrams show corresponding numbered contacts connected in parallel between the male interface, female interface and cable conductors. This M12 cable splitter therefore provides access to the shared circuits through the attached cable.
Both connector interfaces use M12 × 1.0 screw locking. An integrated mounting eye provides a fixing point for securing the adapter to equipment.
A- and B-coded versions are unshielded, while the D-coded version is shielded. PVC and PUR cable options are listed in 1 m, 3 m and 5 m lengths.

Applications
Suggested applications for this M12 male-to-female cable splitter include:
- Machine wiring junctions: Inline M12 connections requiring access to shared circuits through a cable branch.
- Compatible field-device wiring: Connections using the selected coding and contact arrangement.
- Automation equipment: Cable branches to compatible terminal or equipment connections.
- Secured cable installations: Junctions where the mounting eye can hold the splitter in position.
Use the splitter where the equipment supports the illustrated parallel wiring. Check the combined load carried by shared contacts. For communication circuits, confirm that the network permits the branch topology.
Wiring Diagram
The catalog diagrams show each numbered male contact connected to the corresponding female contact and cable conductor.
For example:
- Male Pin 1 connects to Female Pin 1 and cable conductor 1.
- Male Pin 2 connects to Female Pin 2 and cable conductor 2.
- The same numbered connection continues through the remaining contacts.
The cable branch shares the connector circuits; it is not an independently switched channel. Use the wiring diagram matching the 3-, 4-, 5- or 8-pin version, and confirm conductor identification before wiring.
