The ABB 2TLA020056R4100 is a 20-meter screened cable assembly terminated with a straight M12 female connector, type designation M12-C203. The cable contains 8 conductors of 0.34 mm² each plus an overall screen — a common configuration for connecting multi-channel safety devices (light curtains, safety switches) or compact I/O nodes back to a controller in a panel.
What the cable is built for
Eight individually screened 0.34 mm² conductors inside a common outer jacket suit this cable for signals that need isolation from electrical noise — think encoder feedback, safety-circuit pulse trains, or analog sensor lines running alongside power cables in a cabinet. The straight M12 female connector on one end mates directly to a sensor or I/O block; the other end is unterminated, so you land the conductors on a terminal strip or a D-sub connector as the installation requires. The 20-meter length covers longer machine spans without a junction box.
