Ta standard opisuje okrogle konektorje M12, ki se običajno uporabljajo za merjenje in nadzor nad industrijskim postopkom. Ti konektorji sestojijo iz prostih in fiksnih konektorjev z vijačno zaporo in adapterji. Ti konektorji so primerni za povezovanje dveh optičnih vlaken in dveh električnih žic, namenjenih prenosu električne energije do opcijsko vgrajenega oddajnika in prejemnika, ki nista opredeljena v tem standardu. Moški konektorji imajo okrogle električne kontakte s 1.0 mm in okrogle optične kontakte z ferulo 1.25 mm v skladu z IEC 61754-20, stopnje 1 za optične kable, v celoti izdelane iz kremenčevega stekla,
enorodno vlakno 9/125 m
večrodno vlakno 50/125 m ali 62,5/125 m .
OPOMBA M12 je dimenzija niti mehanizma vijačne zapore teh okroglih konektorjev. V tem standardu so dimenzije v mm.

Overview
EN 61076-2-107:2010 (harmonized from IEC 61076-2-107:2010) is the detail specification for circular M12 hybrid connectors that combine electrical and fibre‑optic contacts with screw locking. It targets connectors typically used in industrial process measurement and control and covers fixed and free connector styles, adaptors, mounting orientations and recommended termination methods. The standard defines mechanical, electrical and optical characteristics, required tests and marking and safety considerations for hybrid M12 circular connector sets designed to carry two optical fibres and two electrical conductors for device power and signal interfacing.
Key topics and requirements
- Connector scope and styles
- Fixed (panel) and free (cable) M12 hybrid connectors, plus adaptors and mounting variants.
- Screw‑locking coupling for secure mating in industrial environments.
- Mechanical and dimensional data
- Interface and engagement dimensions, mounting threads and gauges to ensure interchangeability.
- Electrical requirements
- Ratings and characteristics for electrical contacts including current‑carrying considerations, contact resistance and insulation performance.
- Optical requirements
- Ferrule/end‑face dimensions, reference insertion loss and random‑mate loss, and return loss tests for the fibre‑optic contacts.
- Environmental and mechanical testing
- Climatic category, vibration, mechanical operation, IP degree of protection (enclosure protection), dust/salt mist and chemical resistivity as specified by referenced test procedures.
- Test schedules and measurement methods
- Detailed test groups (preliminary, dynamic/climatic, mechanical endurance, electrical load, chemical resistivity, connection method) and arrangements for measurements such as contact resistance and dynamic stress.
- Marking and safety
- Requirements for marking, safety compliance and notes on possible patent rights.
Applications and who uses it
EN 61076-2-107 is essential for:
- Connector manufacturers designing and certifying M12 hybrid circular connectors for industrial networks.
- System integrators and automation engineers specifying connector interfaces for sensors, transmitters and receivers in process control, factory automation and field instrumentation.
- Test laboratories and quality assurance teams validating mechanical, electrical and optical performance against standardized test schedules.
- Procurement and compliance officers ensuring products meet European/CENELEC harmonized requirements for interoperability and safety.
Practical uses include combining power and optical signal paths in a single compact M12 connector to simplify cabling on sensors, actuators and field devices where rugged screw‑locking and controlled optical performance are required.
Related standards
Relevant cross‑references cited in EN 61076-2-107 include:
- IEC/EN 61076‑1 (generic connector specification)
- IEC 61300 series (fibre optic test and measurement procedures)
- IEC 60529 (IP code - degrees of protection)
- IEC 60512 (connector tests and measurements) These related standards govern general connector testing, optical measurement methods and environmental protection criteria that EN 61076‑2‑107 builds on.

Part 2–107: Detail specification for circular hybrid connectors M12
with electrical and fibre-optic contacts with screw locking
FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any

Part 2–107: Detail specification for circular hybrid connectors M12
with electrical and fibre-optic contacts with screw locking
1 General information
1.1 Scope
This standard describes circular M12 connectors typically used for industrial process
measurement and control. These connectors consist of fixed and free connectors with screw-
locking as well as adaptors.
The connectors are suitable to connect two optic fibres and two electrical wires intended for
power transmission to the optionally integrated transmitter and receiver, not specified in this
standard.
Male connectors have round electrical contacts Ø 1,0 mm and round optical contacts with the
ferrule Ø 1,25 mm according to IEC 61754-20, grade 1 for
All-silica optical fibre cables
single mode fibre 9/125 μm
multimode fibre 50/125 μm or 62,5/125 μm
NOTE M12 is the dimension of the thread of the screw locking mechanism of these circular connectors.
Throughout this standard dimensions are in mm.
