- Implementation of direct device connections of up to 100 m using IE FC RJ45 plug 4x2 with Industrial Ethernet FC installation cable 4 x 2 without patch technology
- Connection of rack switches (e.g. SCALANCE XR-500) in a 19" cabinet by means of FC installation cables 4x2 and patch cable via IE FC Keystone RJ45 4x2 in 19" racks
- Easy connection (insulation displacement contacts) for 8-core twisted pair installation cables (10/100/1 000/10 000 Mbps) without the need for special tools
- Error-minimizing connection system thanks to visible connection area as well as color-coded insulation displacement contacts
- Industrial design (rugged metal enclosure, no easily lost small parts)
- Good EMC shielding and discharge (metal enclosure)
- Integrated strain relief for installation cables
- Compatible with the EN 50173 (RJ45) / ISO IEC 11801 standard
- Additional strain and bending relief of the plug-in connector possible by latching of the IE FC RJ45 plug 4x2 onto the device enclosure, e.g. with SCALANCE X, SCALANCE S, SCALANCE W.
