Product Description
AXIS 4-PIN (M) TO UNIVERAL 4-PIN (M) CONVERTER HDC/AX-M
Product Overview:
The AXIS HDC/AX-M allows for flexible pin configuration offering the ability to switch from AXIS type to Universal type. This converter cable solves compatibility challenges between AXIS proprietary 4-pin pinout configuration and universal standard 4-pin pinout used by various camera and monitor manufacturers. The 4-pin aviation connector format maintains weatherproof sealing and vibration resistance essential for vehicle applications while converting signal pin arrangement between incompatible standards. AXIS brand cameras, monitors, and equipment utilize specific pin configuration placing power, ground, and video signals on designated pins within 4-pin aviation connector. Universal standard equipment from other manufacturers uses different pin arrangement placing identical signals on different pin positions within physically identical 4-pin aviation connector. Without this converter, physically compatible connectors fail to establish proper electrical connection because power may connect to video pin, ground to power pin, or other incorrect pin mapping causing equipment malfunction or damage. This adapter cable features AXIS 4-pin male connector on one end plugging into female ports on AXIS equipment such as monitors, recorders, or distribution panels. The opposite end features Universal 4-pin male connector plugging into female ports on universal standard equipment such as monitors, recorders, or cameras utilizing industry-standard pinout. Internal wiring within converter cable routes signals from AXIS pin positions to corresponding universal pin positions ensuring proper power, ground, and video signal connections. The male-to-male configuration enables direct connection between equipment female ports without requiring intermediate extension cables or additional adapters when bridging AXIS and universal equipment. Aviation-grade connector construction provides IP67-rated weatherproof sealing when properly mated to equipment female ports protecting electrical connections from moisture ingress, dust contamination, and corrosive salt spray typical in marine, agricultural, and mining vehicle applications. Threaded coupling nuts on both connectors ensure secure mechanical connection resistant to vibration, shock, and cable tension preventing accidental disconnection during vehicle operation. Gold-plated contact pins minimize electrical resistance and prevent corrosion ensuring reliable signal transmission and power delivery over extended service life in harsh environmental conditions. Compact design minimizes cable bulk and maintains installation flexibility in confined spaces typical of equipment mounting locations and wiring harnesses behind vehicle dashboards or equipment panels.
