| ITT Industries, Cannon Develops New Ethernet Metal Housing Connector |
NEWTON, Mass. October 4, 2004 ITT Industries, Cannon has launched a full range of highly-rugged RJ45 Ethernet connectors, patch cords, covers and sealed boxes targeted for diverse harsh environment applications. The RJ45 Ethernet offerings are ideal for applications such as automation bus networks in petrochemical, food processing, railway network systems, outdoor and indoor civilian and military field data systems and ground avionics. These CAT 6 and CAT 5E performance connectors are waterproof to IP67 and deliver IK10 shock resistance. They are IDC terminated, and therefore require no tooling. They feature 360 degree CEM shielding with a rear metallized cap that allows manual assembly. Secure plug end locking helps prevent undesired disconnection. Pre-terminated patch cords are available in several lengths, and feature PVC or polyurethane cabling to resist oil and other damaging liquids. Lightweight, snap-in rear covers provide tight fixing and guidance, and maintain ground and shielding continuity. Robust steel or stainless steel boxes deliver IP66 protection and enable the connectors to be simply and quickly mounted anywhere. They are available with single, dual or triple outlets and come pre-equipped with plastic cable clamps. Prices range from $15 to $20 depending on quantity and specifications. Lead-times are typically six weeks.
