M8 Circular Connectors


EI Sales connects OEMs to high-quality M8 circular connectors engineered for space-constrained and demanding environments. We help engineers and sourcing professionals evaluate pin counts, coding formats, mounting styles, and sealing options based on real application needs. Our team matches each M8 interconnect to automation, lighting, and transportation systems based on specific project requirements


M8 Connector Variants Available


We carry a broad selection of connectors to meet the mechanical, electrical, and environmental needs of industrial and embedded systems. We guide design teams in selecting the right configuration for power, signal, or data applications.

3, 4, 5, 6, 8-Pin Configurations

Available for analog signals, power delivery, and digital I/O, depending on circuit and system requirements.

A-Code and B-Code Options

Supports different pin arrangements and application standards. A-coded connectors are common for sensors; B-coded versions are used in Profibus and other protocols.

Shielded and Unshielded Versions

Options for EMI-sensitive environments or basic installations, depending on system layout and noise considerations.

Straight and Right-Angle Plug Styles

Available in both orientations to accommodate board layout, cable routing, and enclosure constraints.

Male and Female Panel Mounts

Ideal for chassis, control boxes, or other fixed installations requiring compact and secure M8 interfaces.

Field-Attachable and Pre-Molded Cables

Designed for flexibility during installation or consistent production runs. Field-attachable versions accommodate on-site terminations.

Screw Locking and Snap-In Locking

Different mechanical retention systems to fit vibration-prone or quick-connect use cases.

Built for Compact, Harsh-Environment Applications


M8 circular connectors are designed for tight installation spaces where shock, vibration, and moisture are constant concerns. EI Sales helps engineers select connector styles that meet sealing and mounting needs without compromising durability or signal quality.



Options include IP-rated designs, molded strain relief, and locking features that hold under repeated use. These compact connectors are suited for space-limited systems that demand uptime and sealing.

Common Use Cases for M8 Connectors


These connectors are widely used in compact systems that require reliable signal or power in harsh or high-movement environments. We work across industries to help specify connector types that meet each project's technical and mechanical requirements.

Sensors and Actuators

Used in industrial sensors, proximity switches, and automation devices where compact, sealed connectivity is essential.

Industrial Automation Equipment

Connects machinery, PLCs, and control units in environments exposed to vibration, dust, or frequent cleaning.

Robotics and Motion Control

Enables consistent communication and power to moving parts such as robotic arms, conveyors, and drive units.

LED Lighting Systems

Supports architectural and industrial lighting that requires compact, moisture-resistant connectors.

Compact Control Panels

Fits tight spaces while maintaining strong mechanical retention and EMI performance.

Transportation and Off-Highway Systems

Used in control boxes, lighting, and safety systems on construction, agriculture, and specialty vehicles.

Get Help Choosing the Right M8 Connector


Selecting the right connector early in the design process can prevent fit, function, or compliance issues later on. EI Sales works directly with engineers and sourcing teams to help specify the right M8 solution based on pin count, coding, IP rating, and installation method.


We collaborate closely with trusted manufacturing partners to coordinate samples, part numbers, and production timelines. Our team sources custom cable assemblies, compares locking styles, and helps keep your project moving without delay.
