■
Overview
•
Implementation of direct device connections over distances of
up to 100 m with Industrial Ethernet FC installation cable 2 x 2
without patching
•
Easy connection (insulation displacement contacts) for 4-core
Twisted Pair installation cables (100 Mbit/s) without the need
for special tools
•
Error-preventing connection technique thanks to visible
connection area as well as colored blade terminals
•
Industry-compatible design (rugged metal housing, no easily
lost small parts)
•
Excellent EMC shielding and deflection (metal housing)
•
Integrated strain-relief for installation cables
•
Compatible to the EN 50173 (RJ45) / ISO IEC 11801 standard
•
Additional strain and bending relief of plug connector possible
through latching of plug on device housing, e.g. with
SCALANCE X, SCALANCE S, ET 200S.
■
Benefits
•
Ideal solution for installing RJ45 plug-in connectors in the field
level
•
Time-saving, error-free installation using the FastConnect
system
•
RJ45 plug-in connector is resistant to interference thanks to
the rugged metal housing
•
Reliable shield attachment and strain relief are integrated
•
Mistakes are prevented thanks to color coding and the trans-
parent contact cover
•
A compatible system of Industrial Ethernet FastConnect
plug-in connectors and a comprehensive range of
FastConnect cables with the appropriate UL approvals and
PROFINET compatibility
■
Application
The compact, rugged design of the connectors makes the
FC RJ45 Plug suitable for use in both industrial environments
and on office equipment.
The Industrial Ethernet FastConnect RJ45 Plugs 2 x 2 permit
quick and easy installation of the Industrial Ethernet
FastConnect installation cables 2 x 2 (4-core twisted pair
cables) in the field.
The Industrial Ethernet FastConnect Stripping Tool for preparing
the end of a cable (stripping the jacket and shield in one step)
allows simple handling and fast, reliable fitting of the cable
connector to the cable. As all the cable connector parts are
captive, it can also be fitted in difficult conditions.
The plug-in connectors enable point-to-point links to be imple-
mented (100 Mbit/s) for Industrial Ethernet between two data
terminals/network components up to 100 m without the need for
patches.
Use of FastConnect cables 2 x 2 with IE FC RJ45 Plug 2 x 2
If components that do not support autocrossing are used,
an IE TP XP cord must be used between two network components or terminals.
