Question

Why use a sensor with a quick-disconnect cable versus an axial cable?

Answer

A sensor with a quick-disconnect cable allows for easy replacement of the sensor by eliminating the need for rewiring. This is important when considering machine or operation downtime associated with replacing a sensor. There is a cost difference versus a sensor with an axial cable since the quick-disconnect cable must be purchased seperately.
