New Murrelektronik data cables are high-flex shielded Ethernet Cat5e cables offering various connector styles, including D-coded M12 to M12, M12 to RJ45, RJ45 to RJ45, and M12 to pigtail. These cables are flame-retardant and chemical resistant with a tough TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) jacket for typical industrial applications. A selection of RJ45 IDC field wireable connectors and adapters have also been added to provide custom terminations for specific applications.
Hirose Electric has announced that the ix Industrial™ connector series has been specified as a new standard interface connector for Ethernet applications by PROFINET (Process Field Network).
The new PTVFIX distribution blocks from Phoenix Contact are a combination of the PTFIX distribution block system and the PTV series with vertical conductor connection. The lateral Push-in connection features great advantages, in particular where space is limited. The small size and the modular compatibility of the distribution block system is also an advantage.
New Cat5e RJ45 feedthrough connector and plug carrier from Cliff Electronics has protection to IP65 for rugged applications.
binder now offers connectors with D-coding in the M8 form factor as part of its 818 product series. The products are ideal for Industrial Ethernet applications with communication protocols such as EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP or PROFINET according to IEEE 802.3 via twisted-pair cables of the Cat-5e category. Accordingly, the 4-pin connectors enable the network connection of actuators and sensors of particularly small size with data rates of up to 100 Mbit/s.
With the new AL200S PROFIsafe IO-Link module from ifm electronic, it is now possible to operate standard safety sensors and actuators via IO-Link.
IP66 / IP68 hygienic multi-membrane cable entry plates from icotek available with metric threads M32 – M63.
Allied Electronics & Automation supplies HARTING’s award-winning Han 1A connector series, which is widely acclaimed for the space savings, time savings, and versatility granted by its miniature, modular, rectangular form factor with power, signal, and data capabilities and snap-in mating technology. Han 1A connectors require up to 30% less space than HARTING’s next smallest modular industrial connector, the Han 3A, and are made of robust, chemical-resistant plastic.
CUI Devices’ Interconnect Group recently announced the expansion of its line of pluggable terminal blocks with the addition of 17 new series and over 300 new SKUs. These highly economical models boast industry-best lead times and feature 2 to 24 pole counts as well as new pitch options of 3.5 mm, 5 mm, and 7.62 mm. Ideal for a variety of industrial control, automation, and test equipment applications, the TBP family of pluggable terminal blocks offers plug and receptacle connector types, etc.
The PTU 4 multi-conductor hybrid disconnect terminal blocks from Phoenix Contact safely separate signals in one terminal with two connection methods.
TTI, Inc. recently announced the availability of Molex Micro-Fit+ Single Row Power Connectors with positive lock, right-angle headers and gold terminals from stock at TTI. Molex has now added a single row receptacle and header to the range on Micro-Fit+. The Micro-Fit+ Connector is a wire-to-board system which offers a 3.00mm pitch, a higher-current rating of 12.5A and superior design options for flexibility and efficient assembly.
LUTZE SILFLEX 24VDC flexible control cable is an industrial-rated low voltage cable ideal for both stationary and flexible applications. Constructed with a rugged outer jacket, these cables provide resistance to sunlight, oil, and moisture penetration, making them suitable for wet and dry locations. With its UL Type MTW Machine Tool Wire rating, this cable meets the NFPA 79, Electrical Standard for Industrial Machinery with additional ratings and approvals.
The new docking frames in the Phoenix Contact HEAVYCON product family enable the time-saving installation and maintenance of slide-in systems and other applications in which the interfaces cannot be seen. Protruding guide elements enable connections to be contacted blindly and reliably. The male and female sides are aligned together due to the floating mounting of the frames.
Offering data rates of up to 100 Mbit/s and almost a third less space required than M12: the D-coded M8 circular connectors of binder’s 818 series ensure the space-saving and cost-efficient connection of miniaturized sensors in Ethernet networks.
Leviton recently announced a new Category 6A cable called LM-RDT. This UTP plenum cable features an outside diameter (OD) of only 0.230 inches, making it ideal for cable upgrades, retrofit applications, or areas where space is at a premium. LM-RDT – short for Leviton Manufacturing Reduced Diameter Technology – achieves a smaller OD by eliminating the cable cross-filler while maintaining Category 6A performance through Leviton Precision Twist Technology.
