They are used wherever a compact design, high reliability and fast diagnostic capability are required. These compact connectors are available in both straight and angled versions &#8211; either as single-ended or as connecting cables.They ensure reliable signal transmission with visual status monitoring directly at the connection point.<\/p>\n<p>Depending on the version, the connectors feature two or three integrated LEDs that indicate the status of power supply, signal, or switching state. This visual feedback enables quick commissioning, simplifies maintenance, and reduces downtime through targeted fault diagnosis \u2013 directly at the connection.<\/p>\n<p>To optimally adapt to structural conditions, the connectors are available in both straight and angled designs. The overmolding provides IP67 protection, ensuring reliable operation even in harsh industrial environments. You can choose between a robust PVC cable or a halogen-free TPU cable. The connectors are available in standardized cable lengths \u2013 custom configurations are available upon request.<\/p>\n<p>CONEC\u2019s M8x1 connectors with integrated LED status indicators offer real added value in numerous industries.<br \/>\nIn intralogistics and conveyor systems, they enable reliable connection of light barriers, proximity sensors, and drives on conveyor belts. At the same time, they support the monitoring and control of material flows in automated warehouse systems \u2013 with clear LED feedback on signal status directly at the connection.<br \/>\nIn packaging and filling systems, the connectors ensure efficiency: limit switches, level sensors, and temperature probes can be securely connected, while the integrated LED display allows visual monitoring of switching signals during operation \u2013 without the need for additional diagnostic devices.<br \/>\nIn test and inspection systems, the connectors offer flexible connections with immediately visible signal continuity \u2013 ideal for prototyping, laboratory environments, or temporary installations where quick checks and adjustments are essential.<\/p>\n<p>Conclusion:<br \/>\nM8x1 connectors with LED indicators are more than just connection elements \u2013 they are smart diagnostic tools for demanding applications.<\/p>\n<h3>Advantages:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Compact design<\/li>\n<li>Direct display of signal states<\/li>\n<li>Protection class IP67<\/li>\n<li>Simple mounting<\/li>\n<li>Drag-chain-compatible variants available<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Fields of application:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Intralogistics and Conveyor Technology<\/li>\n<li>Packaging and Filling Systems<\/li>\n<li>Building Technology and Security Systems<\/li>\n<li>Testing and Inspection Systems<\/li>\n<li>Solar Technology and Environmental Measurement Technology<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a class=\"button first\" href=\"https:\/\/conec.com\/catalog\/en\/circular-connectors-sensor-actor-line\/overmoulded.html?_=1751287216875&amp;a00013=5622&amp;a00016=5679%2C5680&amp;id=254\"><strong>zum PRODUKTBEREICH<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-18120\" src=\"https:\/\/conec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/M8_2_3_LED_mit-Applikationen_WEb80.jpg\" alt=\"ZUverl\u00e4ssige Statusanzeige direkt am M8x1 Steckverbinder\" width=\"851\" height=\"137\" srcset=\"https:\/\/conec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/M8_2_3_LED_mit-Applikationen_WEb80.jpg 2480w, https:\/\/conec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/M8_2_3_LED_mit-Applikationen_WEb80-300x48.jpg 300w, https:\/\/conec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/M8_2_3_LED_mit-Applikationen_WEb80-1024x165.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/conec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/M8_2_3_LED_mit-Applikationen_WEb80-768x124.jpg 768w, https:\/\/conec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/M8_2_3_LED_mit-Applikationen_WEb80-1536x247.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/conec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/M8_2_3_LED_mit-Applikationen_WEb80-2048x329.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/conec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/M8_2_3_LED_mit-Applikationen_WEb80-275x44.jpg 275w, https:\/\/conec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/M8_2_3_LED_mit-Applikationen_WEb80-375x60.jpg 375w, https:\/\/conec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/M8_2_3_LED_mit-Applikationen_WEb80-475x76.jpg 475w, https:\/\/conec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/M8_2_3_LED_mit-Applikationen_WEb80-570x92.jpg 570w, https:\/\/conec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/M8_2_3_LED_mit-Applikationen_WEb80-1160x187.jpg 1160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 851px) 100vw, 851px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230; Reliable status display directly on the connector &#8211; for maximum operational reliability CONEC M8x1 &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":19193,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[62],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-18130","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-en"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/conec.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18130","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/conec.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/conec.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/conec.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/conec.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18130"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/conec.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18130\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":19204,"href":"https:\/\/conec.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18130\/revisions\/19204"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/conec.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19193"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/conec.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18130"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/conec.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18130"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/conec.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18130"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
