Control Cabinet Cable Entry Systems From AutomationDirect

The KDL/D cable entry system allows cables to be installed through enclosures or other bulkhead surfaces, with the added benefit that pre-made, terminated cables can be installed without disassembling the connectors. The split-frame system enables the quick and simple installation of up to 48 cables in a single frame. Four frame sizes, starting at $16.00, fit standard cut-out dimensions and provide integrated strain relief.

Wieland Electric: High Current, High Voltage Power Bus for Manufacturing, Conveying & Logistics

The podis power bus system provides decentralized and flexible power distribution for factories, airports and warehouses. With its unique design and connection technology, the podis system is easy, fast, & safe to install and maintain. The new 5-core tray cable system provides higher load capacity to allow for more drives per segment and longer cable sections. Compared to other installations that require long cable lengths, the voltage drop along the bus is significantly reduced.

 

 

 

Mouser: Amphenol RF BNC to SMA Cable Assemblies

Mouser: Amphenol RF BNC to SMA Cable Assemblies

Amphenol RF BNC to SMA Cable Assemblies features straight or right-angle BNC plugs to straight or right-angle SMA connectors on RG-58, RG-142, and RG-316 cable. The BNC connectors feature a bayonet coupling style, which allows for quick connect and disconnect while still offering high reliability. The assemblies can be used for both 50Ω and 75Ω impedance applications. The 50Ω assemblies will function up to 4GHz and the 75Ω assemblies will function up to 3GHz. Amphenol RF BNC to SMA Cable Assemblies are ideal for broadcast applications.

 

 

 

HARTING Americas Announces Launch of Breakthrough Single Pair Ethernet Technology

HARTING Americas Announces Launch of Breakthrough Single Pair Ethernet Technology

HARTING Americas announced their North American launch of their Single Pair Ethernet technologies. The company has been driving the creation of a Single Pair Ethernet standard for the Industrial marketplace since 2015 along with other industrial companies and global standards bodies, such IEC and IEEE. Single Pair Ethernet communicates across the common industrial Ethernet protocols available today (Ethernet/IP, Profinet, EtherCAT, etc.) but instead of using 4 or 8 total wires, it accomplishes communication across just two wires, a single twisted pair.

 

 

 

TE Connectivity: STRADA Whisper Cable Receptacle

TE Connectivity: STRADA Whisper Cable Receptacle

TE Connectivity (TE) recently announced the launch of its new STRADA Whisper cable receptacles, which can allow engineers to start designing for up to 112G PAM-4 data rates in servers, switches and routers. These cable receptacles incorporate STRADA Whisper connectors on one end and connect to a variety of other high speed solutions on the other, including backplane, mid-board or input/output (I/O) products, bypassing the printed circuit board (PCB) and minimizing insertion loss and crosstalk.

 

 

 

The New WAGO I/O System Field (IP67) for Future-Proof Automation of Modular Machines

The New WAGO I/O System Field (IP67) for Future-Proof Automation of Modular Machines

Modern, decentralized production facilities require automation solutions that ensure the highest level of connectivity, while providing maximum performance outside of the control cabinet. WAGO developed its I/O System Field with IP67 protection to meet these needs today and tomorrow by being upgradable: “I/O System Field combines speed with ETHERNET-based fieldbuses (e.g., PROFINET), technologies such as OPC UA or Webserver and, in the future, MQTT as a communication protocol, for cloud connectivity,” says WAGO automation expert Ludwig Adelmann.
