Quabbin DataMax Extreme Industrial Ethernet cable jackets were developed to survive the many industrial hazards that commercial jackets will not. Quabbin Cat5e Industrial Ethernet cable has a UL PLTC rating allowing it to be installed in a cable tray without the need for conduit. With its 22 AWG conductors it works well in power over Ethernet (POE) applications.
TE Connectivity (TE) is releasing its EB16 expanded beam optical pin and socket termini in new single mode and multimode variations. Both variations are based on an updated design that includes springless mating and crimpless cable retention. EB16 termini are built on TE’s PRO BEAM expanded beam connector technology, which expands and collimates the optical signal into a beam size well beyond its original size to help provide easier optical alignment, low sensitivity to contamination and consistent performance over thermal changes.
VNTC (Vinyl Nylon Tray Cable) 600 Volt Type TC-ER control cables from AutomationDirect are suited for use in wet and dry areas, conduits, ducts, troughs, trays, direct burial and where superior electrical properties are desired. VNTC cable is available in 18 AWG to 10 AWG with 3 to 24 unshielded copper conductors. Cables are cut to length in 1-foot increments with a 20-foot minimum.
WAGO has expanded its line of PCB terminal blocks to help engineers address the trend of electronic miniaturization, which requires that both power and signal levels be integrated onto PCBs. This trend has changed connection technology requirements by increasing power density. leading WAGO to offer its 2606 and 2626 Series PCB Terminal Blocks with 12.5 mm (0.492″) pin spacing. Additionally, its 2616 and 2636 Series PCB Terminal Blocks are now available with 15 mm (0.59″) pin spacing.
Phoenix Contact presents new connectors for energy storage systems. The device and cable connectors are protected against polarity reversal and can be rotated 360°. This makes them particularly suitable for flexible cable outlets in modular battery racks.
PRC series plastic circular connectors from Phoenix Contact are now also available as an assembled connection solution. The pre-assembled connectors and cables are suitable for indoor and outdoor use, and are ideal for fast startup since no on-site assembly is required.
Phoenix Contact rounds off its portfolio for copper-based data transmission: the new RJ45 device connectors for direct PCB mounting offer a wide range of solutions for data transmission in the device.
The CANopen input and output modules (CANopen I/O modules) from DOLD are peripheral components of the CANopen SPS. With DOLD, you get the central components of the control system for machines and systems from a single source. Both analogue and digital bus modules are available for the field bus system CANopen.
Cable plugs are frequently used for connecting sensors and actuators with connection terminals to splitter boxes or modules in automation technology. Even when fastened by hand, a perfect lasting seal of splitter and module connections is guaranteed. They offer high protection against moisture ingress and high material resistance to aggressive liquids.
Phoenix Contact’s FINEPITCH board-to-board connector series now includes unshielded options in a 0.8-mm pitch. The unshielded version gives design engineers more flexibility in applications without EMI concerns. The FINEPITCH series comes in multiple orientations, stack heights, and number of positions. The variety of connection options makes it easier to position PCBs at the appropriate angles and distances from each other, even in very compact devices.
Würth Elektronik’s expands EMC filtering solutions with WE-CLFS EMC Line Filters and a new “Design Your Own EMC Filter Kit” that enables users to assemble a working EMC filter during design.
The plastic push-pull REDEL SP connectors from Lemo offer an ergonomic grip and a variety of colors enhancing usability and are used extensively in medical applications.
Would you like to connect intelligent IO-Link sensors or actuators to your control system? ASi-5 makes it extremely easy to connect IO-Link devices with different functions and from different manufacturers. Using the function-independent IO-Link protocol, you can connect a wide variety of intelligent sensors and actuators. Thanks to ASi, you only need one cable and have absolutely no restrictions on topology.
Stewart Connector, a Bel group company, and world class manufacturer of high-speed connectors used in data communication applications announces an addition to the SealJack series, with an IP67 rated RJ45 to RJ45 PCB coupler, ideal for harsh environment applications. Stewart’s SealJack PCB Coupler utilizes a shielded right angle RJ45 SealJack, offering an IP67 rated connection when mounting to a box or panel.
HARTING has developed a new Han Shielded power module that allows users to insert shielded power lines into modular connectors for the first time. A shielded signal module for easy EMC-protected data transmission will also be added to this product shortly. Customer benefits: Easy to use and shorter installation times.
The HARTING Technology Group has developed a new range of Ethernet switches that facilitates the use of high-performance plug & play gigabit network solutions in the smallest space for data-intensive applications. Imaging processes for quality assurance and monitoring are becoming increasingly significant in all industrial sectors.
