■
Design
The Industrial Ethernet FC RJ45 Plug 4 x 2 is available with a
180° (straight) cable outlet.
It is the ideal method of connecting an Industrial Ethernet
FastConnect cable to data terminals and network components.
The plug has a rugged, industry-compatible metal housing that
provides optimum protection against faults in data communica-
tion.
The eight integrated insulation displacement contacts make
contacting of the FC cable variants 4 x 2 and 2 x 2 easy and
error-free. After the stripped cable end has been inserted in the
insulation displacement terminals, the conductors make contact
when the casing is closed.
Owing to their compact size, the plug connectors can be
used both on devices with individual jacks and on devices with
multiple jacks (blocks).
Data terminals with a suitable bracket on the housing provide
additional tension and bending relief for the plug-in cable.
■
Function
The IE FC RJ45 Plug 4 x 2 is used to install uncrossed
10/100/1000 Mbit/s Ethernet connections up to 90 m without the
use of patches. Crossed cables can also be installed by
swapping the transmit and receive pair in a plug.
With the casing open, colored markers on the contact element
make it simple to connect the cores to the insulation displace-
ment contacts. The transparent synthetic material of the contact
element allows users to check the contacts themselves.
