Punch down and earth strap for connector
The RJ-LnxxT IP67 rated, sealed, industrial RJ-45 connectors, available in the UK from Aerco, are now available with IDC punch down and earth strap terminations.
They are compatible with all standard D-type connectors and allow cost-effective development of EMI/EMC approved designs providing protection against surges, conducted disturbances, induced or electrostatic disturbances and conducted emissions.
Filtering is by a ceramic capacitor that provides a lowpass filter with minimal attenuation in the transmission pass band while the ground plane provides additional RF shielding.
Customised versions are available.
The FCT filtered connectors are fitted with RF foam clad gaskets that seal the area where the connector meets the wall of the appliance ensuring a high level of RF shielding.
This seal is also air and watertight thus preventing corrosion at the contact point.
Also available are shielded plastic caps for dust and RF protection and either metal or shielded plastic hoods.
A special crimping flange is available to complete shielding at the cable outlet of the connector shell.
