TE Connectivity CAT5 Industrial Mini I/O Connectors

TE Connectivity CAT5 Industrial Mini I/O Field-Installable Connectors are compact (25% the size of conventional RJ45) wire-to-wire and wire-to-board solutions for reliable serial, bus, and Ethernet connections in industrial applications. These rugged connectors consist of only three parts (the termination unit, outer housing, and nut), allowing easy, quick, and error-free installation without the need for tools and wire length preparation. The CAT5 Industrial Mini I/O Field-Installable Connectors automatically cut off the wire at the optimal length during contacting, guaranteeing optimal (Cat5) transmission performance.

Features

  • Only three parts: termination unit, outer housing, and nut
  • Toolless installations, standard tools may be used as an assembly aid
  • Integrated wire termination and wire cut-off
  • Rugged die-cast housing for optimal protection and shielding
  • Small form factor reduces PCB area and equipment height
  • Two unique keying styles to prevent mismating
  • Field installable technology enables easy, quick, and error-free installation
  • Innovative IDC termination decreases the time usually needed to terminate the wires by soldering
  • Optimized EMI and signal integrity with the signal path design and 360° shielding
  • High board connector retention and compact metal latching mechanism prevent accidental pull or unmating reducing system downtime
  • Allows latch activation in high-density applications
