CBTG1BG Push-Pull Connectors for Industrial 3D Laser Scanners 2026: SMSM02 15 A Power Plug and SMSM08 1 Gb/s Data Plug for Scanner Systems
The CBTG1BG-SMSM02-D52B and CBTG1BG-SMSM08-D52B are CBTG1BG push-pull connectors for industrial 3D laser scanners — a 1B series power plug with 2 contacts rated up to 15 A and AWG 28–20 support, paired with a 1B series data plug with 8 contacts, four differential pairs and 1000 Base-T4 Gigabit Ethernet at 1 Gb/s with 75 dB shielding at 10 MHz. Every specification in this guide is backed by the industrial scanning interconnect engineering of Spring Technology.
Pain point: Feeding power and pulling point-cloud data out of a scanning head that sits on a moving machine — where the power interface must carry meaningful current, the data link must survive electrically noisy production floors, and both must survive repeated maintenance?
Core answer: Spring Technology supplies two complementary connection solutions for industrial 3D laser scanner systems, supporting stable power delivery and high-speed digital communication in demanding industrial environments. Modern industrial 3D laser scanners integrate a laser source, optical receiver, scanning mechanism, processing electronics and a high-speed data interface — so the connector system must support both reliable electrical power and fast data transmission. Together they form the power-and-data pairing that makes the CBTG1BG push-pull connectors for industrial 3D laser scanners system practical. The CBTG1BG-SMSM02-D52B can be evaluated for the scanner’s power connection, while the CBTG1BG-SMSM08-D52B suits high-speed data communication between the scanning head and processing electronics.

2. Power Connector Design Highlights: CBTG1BG-SMSM02-D52B
The power side of a scanning system is about delivering current into a compact head. These advantages explain why this model serves the power side of the CBTG1BG push-pull connectors for industrial 3D laser scanners system:
2.1 High Current Capacity for Scanner Power
- Two low-voltage contacts with a rated current of up to 15 A support applications requiring a compact but relatively high-current power connection, with wire sizes from AWG 28 to AWG 20. For an industrial 3D laser scanner this provides a dedicated power interface for the scanning head or other power-consuming modules.
2.2 Push-Pull Locking for Fast Connection
- The push-pull self-latching mechanism lets operators connect and disconnect the cable quickly without relying on threaded locking, which suits scanning equipment that needs frequent cable replacement, system maintenance or module changes.
2.3 High Mechanical Durability
- Specified for up to 5,000 mating cycles, the connector withstands mechanical shock of up to 100 g and vibration of up to 15 g over 10~20000 Hz — suitable for scanning equipment operating around machine tools, production lines, robotic cells and other mechanically active environments.
3. Data Connector Design Highlights: CBTG1BG-SMSM08-D52B
The data side carries point clouds out of the head. These advantages explain why this model serves the high-speed data side of the CBTG1BG push-pull connectors for industrial 3D laser scanners system:
3.1 1 Gb/s High-Speed Data Transmission
- Eight low-voltage contacts arranged as four differential pairs support 1000 Base-T4 at 1 Gb/s. High-speed transmission matters because an industrial 3D laser scanner generates large volumes of point-cloud and measurement data, so a suitable high-speed connector helps maintain a reliable communication link between the scanning unit and the processing system.
3.2 Compact Interface for High-Speed Signals
- Rather than a large multi-connector interface, the 1B format provides multiple contacts within a relatively compact circular connector — helping designers reduce connector footprint while maintaining the required data interface.
3.3 Shielding for Industrial Environments
- Shielding of 75 dB at 10 MHz and 40 dB at 1 GHz is valuable for scanning equipment installed near motors, variable-frequency drives, industrial controllers and other sources of electromagnetic interference.
4. 1B Series Connector Family Overview
The 1B shell is part of Spring Technology’s push-pull self-locking connector family, used in precision measurement, machine tool, industrial and test equipment. Both halves of the CBTG1BG push-pull connectors for industrial 3D laser scanners system share the same platform, so power and data interfaces stay mechanically consistent.

- Shell: 1B shell size, with 00B, 0B and 2B siblings for smaller or larger layouts.
- Pin counts: 2 to 16 contacts on the 1B shell — including the 2-contact power and 8-contact high-speed layouts used here.
- Termination: solder termination with cable collet and bend relief options.
- Cable range: cable openings from 2.2 to 7.5 mm across the 1B platform.
4.2 Customization Services
- Custom contact allocations and part numbers (such as the CBTG1BG-SMSM02-D52B and CBTG1BG-SMSM08-D52B) matched to each scanner’s power and data plan.
- Combined power and data cable assemblies with the required conductor and jacket dimensions.
- Shielding and EMC verification for high-speed links on production floors.
- Pre-wired scanning head and processing unit harnesses.
5. Applications: Industrial 3D Laser Scanning Systems
Scanning happens where the parts are made. This CBTG1BG push-pull connector for industrial 3D laser scanners serves both sides of the signal chain.
5.1 3D Laser Scanning Heads and Laser Measurement Modules
Power feeds the scanning head through the 2-contact plug while point-cloud data leaves through the 8-contact high-speed plug.
5.2 Inline Dimensional and Surface Inspection Scanners
Inline dimensional inspection and automated surface inspection scanners use the same power and data pairing for a compact, serviceable interface.
5.3 Robotic Scanning and Machine-Tool Inspection Systems
Robotic 3D scanning systems, industrial point-cloud acquisition equipment and machine-tool 3D inspection systems benefit from the mechanical durability of the 1B platform.
