Telegärtner UK
With the STX M12x1 IP67 circular connectors series, Telegärtner offers solutions for the demand of the industry for consistent cabling of industrial communication networks in accordance with IEC 61918 which prescribes M12x1 circular connectors in 4- and 8-pole versions as a plug interface.
The series contains M12x1 D- and X-coded connectors which are suitable for connecting to both solid conductors and stranded wire cables as well as offering 360° shield contacting.
Another part of the STX M12x1 IP67 connector series are printed circuit board bulkhead sockets with housings for front or back mounting.
The range is rounded off by pre-assembled connecting cables for the device connection between machines/terminating equipments or machine/terminating equipment to the control cabinet.
Designed for Transmitting Maximum Data Rates in Industrial Applications
As 4-pole, D-coded compact connectors in Cat.5e, the M12 from Telegärtner can transmit data rates up to 100 Mbit/s in the PROFINET environment. X-coded in Cat.6A, the 8-pole version can transmit data rates up to 10 Gbit/s according to IEC 61076-2-109:2014. The high bandwidth is ensured by separating the four pairs transmission technically by a cross shield (X-coding). Additionally a power supply to connected terminating equipments is possible.
The STX M12x1 connector series can be used for applications such as security and video surveillance (CCTV), passenger information systems (PIS), production systems or production monitoring with high-resolution cameras. Users can connect X-ray machines for baggage inspection at airports, for example, encapsulated and safe from manipulation with the M12 circular connector. But the M12 is also a real trump card in railway vehicles: It helps to distribute the increasing data volume reliably and to transmit the data to all connected systems and devices in the train, for example, to cameras or switches.
