Data connector module RJF TV

RJ45Ethernetcircular

Overview
The Amphenol Socapex RJF TV rugged Ethernet connector series is a range of high-performance connectors designed to provide robust and reliable Ethernet connectivity in harsh and demanding environments. Available in Cat5e, Cat6 and Cat6A variants, these connectors feature a ruggedized metal housing, a push-pull locking mechanism and integrated sealing for protection against dust, fluids and mechanical stress. They are backward-compatible with standard RJ45 interfaces and support a variety of cable types and sizes.

Key features

• Sealed against fluids and dust (IP68)
• Shock, vibration and traction resistant
• No special tools required for field cabling operations
• Mechanical coding/polarization with 4 positions

Applications

• Battlefield communications, C4ISR
• Data acquisition and transmission in harsh environments
• Armoured vehicles
• Battleships
• Rail Mass Transit
