Connector Series for Railway & Vehicle Applications
With the STX M12x1 IP67 connector series for Railway and Vehicle Applications Telegärtner offers various solutions for applications in harsh environments.
The series contains M12x1 X-coded connectors as plug and socket versions which are suitable for connecting to cables with both solid and stranded conductors as well as offering 360° shielding. This shielding ensures safe and reliable data transmission. The range is completed with factory-made cable assemblies for connections between end device and end device or end device and distribution point. The cable assemblies are available in multiple configurations and the packaging and cable printing can be individually customized.
As 8-pole, X-coded compact connectors in Cat.6A, the M12 from Telegärtner can transmit data rates of up to 10 Gbit/s in accordance with IEC 61076-2-109:2014. Even in harsh environments, the high bandwidth is ensured by separating the four pairs with a cross shield (X-coding). Remote powering of end devices is also possible.
Designed for Transmitting Maximum Data Rates
The expansion of communication infrastructure in rail and vehicle applications is advancing to make the on-board experience as comfortable and entertaining as possible for the passengers. In addition to real-time information about the train schedule, passengers want the flexibility to be able to work and surf on board. Besides the onboard applications for passengers, even more processes are being automated by the vehicle operators. So for example processes like security systems where the carriages will be monitored by IP cameras or traffic flows will be managed automatically by the individual trains.
Therefore the train manufacturers are obliged to constantly improve their communication network infrastructure in the vehicles so they can offer a working, safe and reliable network.
