Data connector RJF RB

RJ45Ethernetbayonet

Product overview
The RJF RB is an industrial Ethernet RJ45 field connection system designed for harsh environments. It provides a sealed metallic plug assembly that allows the use of standard RJ45 cordsets while ensuring protection against fluids, dust, shock, vibration and axial traction. The system can be installed in the field without cabling operations or special tools and maintains shielding continuity up to Gigabit Ethernet.

Key features

• Sealed against fluids and dust (IP68)
• Resistance to shock, vibration and axial traction
• Field-installable without cabling operations or special tools

Applications

• Wireless base stations & access points
• Video control / CCTV systems
• Robotics
• Industrial process control (CNC machines)
• Special machines / motion control
