The new Harax M8-S connector can be used on cables with outer diameters from 2.5 to 5mm.
Cables and cords carry Gigabit Ethernet
Cables address industry requirements for higher bandwidths in future proofed commercial and industrial networks.
The factory-sealed and tested units are 'plug and play' ready, and remove the need for gland installation with its potential for cable damage through twisting and bending.
The connectors are compliant with 8-wire copper, Category 5 (100 Mbit/s Fast Ethernet) and Category 6 (Gigabit Ethernet) cabling, and future versions are planned for fibre-optic and standard ATM links.
A hybrid version is also available which mixes an 8-wire Cat 5/6 link with four additional power contacts.
Tactile and compact 'push/pull' mating minimises the panel fixing area and provides users with positive locking feedback.
The range includes plastic hoods and housings as well as metal versions for more rugged applications - all with latch-locked mating.
Optional 360deg EMC screening is available for high EMI/RFI scenarios, and IP68 solutions can be offered for the most extreme environmental conditions.
Harting's RJ45 Industrial connectors are complemented by a selection of outlet or wall boxes in plastic or metal finish, as well as switching boxes, plus a range of pre-made patch cables.
