Panel Interface Connectors:
Choose Your Own Adventure

A panel interface connector (PIC) is a device that is mounted to the outside (exterior) of a panel that houses a PLC or computer. The PIC allows the user to interface the PLC or computer without opening the panel door, thereby, eliminating the potential safety hazards associated with having an open electrical panel.

The standard PIC contains one or more of the connectors that are commonly used to interface a PLC, computer or other devices that are commonly housed inside the cabinet. The connectors include, but are not limited to, D-subminiature connectors (9, 15, 25, 37 or high density 15 pin), RJ45, RJ11, DIN, BNC and coaxial connectors. Any of these connectors are available alone in a PIC, with a power outlet, or with another connector.
