Automation Industry
In the automation industry, a terminal adapter is a passive device that converts a connector like the 8P8C (RJ-45) modular connector or 9 pin D-Sub into a terminal block to facilitate wiring. It is often used when daisy-chain wiring is necessary on a multi-node serial communication network like RS-485 or RS-422.
