Weidmuller: RockStar ModuPlug

October 14, 2020

Great performance in the smallest of spaces

More for less: RockStar ModuPlug sets new standards. The modular connector system solves space problems by offering increased functionality with a reduced installation space, which in turn also helps keep the weight down. And all this with more convenient installation. Simply more of what you need and less of what you can do without.

Specially designed with the future in mind

Pitch size halved

The module pitch size in the frame has been halved. This doubles the number of module spaces and increases the functionality in the same space.

High speed data

The compact bus module is designed for megabit and gigabit data connectors. This allows the integration of up to two Cat. 6A connections, each with 10 GBit in one module.

Simple configuration

Configure frames, modules, contacts, and accessories quickly and easily in the RockStar ModuPlug online configurator.

Space-saving and modular connection solutions for the control cabinet wall

The new RockStar ModuPlug terminal block modules with PUSH IN connection technology re-inventing the control cabinet wiring. The innovative terminal solution in the connector frees up space in the cabinet and reduces the time needed for installation.

More freedom – less effort

Discover your freedom with RockStar ModuPlug

The frames and modules can be installed with extreme ease and integrated into HDC housings with the IP65 and IP68 protection classes. You can even use RockStar ModuPlug in existing applications without the need to make system adjustments.

More power – less weight

New module width brings more performance into the enclosure

The high-performance 100 A module of our system is available in the “Single Plus 1.5” width. It is narrower than the market standard and creates space for further modules. You can, however, also choose smaller frames and enclosure sizes to save both space and weight.

More signals – less space

Higher contact density on a single module

Transfer more signals with the same enclosure dimensions thanks to a higher contact density – 36 signal contacts at a rated voltage of 250 V. The double module HD 36 achieves 50 % more than the market standard and therefore sets a benchmark.

More data – less limits

10 Gbit high speed in the smallest of spaces

A new level of data transfer: up to two Cat.-6A cables each with 10 Gbit can now be integrated in a module. Our innovative two-pole bus module can accommodate megabit and gigabit data inserts. The use of standard M12 connector technology achieves optimal EMC values. A 360-degree shield connection offers maximum protection against external interference.

More options – less costs

New pitch sizes ensure added flexibility at lower costs

You save installation space, weight and costs: choose now between four different module widths. The halved pitch size allows twice the number of module slots in the frame. The reduced pitch separation allows more functionality in the same installation space.

More flexibility – less dependency

Single-source solution for more alternatives

You have the choice: RockStar ModuPlug offers you maximum flexibility. With high-performance connectors, components for panel building and plant automation. Compatibility is just one aspect that allows you absolute flexibility.

More convenience – less risk

Optimal product design for safe and easy installation

The innovative design of RockStar ModuPlug offers several benefits: a two-point fixture allows assembly and disassembly without tools. The fixed locking position provides for stability, meaning the modules can be assembled faster and easier. Incorrect connection is avoided through special round and rectangular coding.

Fast and easy configuration

Quickly and easily configure your individual plug-in connector online. The RockStar ModuPlug Online Configurator enables fast and easy compilation of frames, modules, contacts and accessories using drag & drop.
