Overview
- Implementation of direct device connections of up to 100 m with Industrial Ethernet FC installation cable 2 x 2 without using patch technology
- Easy connection (insulation displacement contacts) for 4-wire Twisted Pair installation cables (100 Mbps) without the need for special tools
- Error-minimizing connection system thanks to visible connection area as well as colored insulation displacement termination
- Industry-compatible design (rugged metal enclosure, no easy-to-lose small parts)
- Good EMC shielding and deflection (metal enclosure)
- Integrated strain relief for installation cables
- Compatible with the EN 50173 (RJ45) / ISO IEC 11801 standard
- Additional strain and bending relief of plug-in connection possible through latching of plug on device enclosure, e.g. with SCALANCE X, SCALANCE S, SCALANCE M, SIMATIC CPs, SIMATIC S7-1500.
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 transparent 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, secure 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 implemented (100 Mbps) for Industrial Ethernet between two terminal devices/network components up to 100 m without using patch technology.
Design
Industrial Ethernet FC RJ45 plugs are available in three designs:
- With 180° (straight) cable outlet
- With 145° (angled) cable outlet (SIMOTION and SINAMICS, for example)
- With 90° (angled) cable outlet (for SIMATIC ET 200S, for example)
They are used for optimized connection of Industrial Ethernet FastConnect cables to terminal devices and network components. The plugs have a rugged, industrial metal enclosure that provides optimum protection against faults in data communication.
The 4 integrated insulation displacement contacts make contacting of the FC cable variants easy and error-free. After the stripped cable end has been inserted into the insulation displacement terminations (which have been hinged open), the latter are pressed down for reliable contacting of the conductors.
Thanks to their compactness, the plug-in connectors (IE FC plug 180°) can be used on devices with individual sockets and on devices with multiple sockets (blocks).
Function
The IE FC RJ45 plugs are used to install uncrossed 100 Mbps Ethernet connections up to 100 m without using patch technology. Crossed cables can also be installed by swapping the transmit and receive pair in a plug.
When the housing is open, color markings on the contact cover make it easier to connect the cores to the blade terminals. The user can check that contact has been made correctly through the transparent plastic material of the contact cover.
