Cables and cords carry Gigabit Ethernet
Cables address industry requirements for higher bandwidths in future proofed commercial and industrial networks.
It combines a high packing density with ease of assembly and access for maintenance, and lends itself to automated production environments.
Han Easy-Hood is based on a size 24B hood, which is split vertically into two shells to allow a variety of assembly configurations.
It offers the potential for fast and secure wiring as pre-assembled inserts and cabling can be mounted to the hood as a separate operation and terminations can be visibly checked before the hood is closed.
The hood features a patented split rubber seal design with a strain-relief assembly that allows pre-assembled cables to be easily and securely mounted to the hood.
The unit is compatible with standard bulkhead or surface-mounting housings, and offers IP65 protection for use in harsh industrial environments.
The enlarged wiring space inside the hood, combined with the optimised side entry angle, make it particularly suited for applications near the floor in equipment such as robots, welders and injection moulding machines.
