Connector manufacturer CONEC has supplemented its IP67-rated RJ45 family of connectors with a dual bayonet in-line connector designed for industrial Ethernet applications requiring fast mating and unmating.
“Ideal for harsh applications such as industrial machinery, security and surveillance equipment, test and measurement equipment, and GPS systems and communications . . . the [new] connector delivers mechanical stability, temperature resistance, vibration immunity and EMI/RFI shielding,” CONEC said. The new connector is available in durable black polyester plastic or ABS nickel-plated plastic.
“The in-line bayonet locking coupler offers IP67 protection at both ends between two connectors, allowing the end user to panel mount or create an in-line extension,” Peter Persico, technical support specialist at CONEC, said. “Utilizing gold plated contacts and metallized plastics, the durable in-line coupler provides the highest level of protection available on the market.”
