Under photoelectric sensors-high performance sensors, check out the descriptions. Check out Diffuse Reflective (1351E Model). Read down throught the list looking at the type of connections. They use words like micro, mini, M12, etc. The last one 1351E-6507 when clicked on brings up more info. In the short description they use the term "mini connector ". To me that is a M8. If you read carefully the description next to the picture they call it 4-pin mini connector, 7/8 inch - 16UN thread. That is NOT mini at all. Is it me or is that confusing? Did not take the time to look at all of them. I did not experience this confusing with other sensors listed. I will use them, but now I have to make a separate order for the cords, another shipping cost.
