Rugged RJ45 connector

18 March 2009 Interconnection

Intended for high-speed Ethernet connections in severe environments, the new connector in Souriau’s ‘all plastic’ UTS range can be assembled in less than a minute. It can be used with any standard RJ45 cable and requires no special tools for assembly or disassembly.

It is particularly suitable for shop-floor or field installations for robotics, machinery, automation, railway and industrial telecommunications applications and on-board applications.

The connector benefits from IP68 or IP69K sealing performance which ensures stable characteristics when immersed at a depth of 10 m and during high-pressure cleaning at up to 140 bar. This sealing is dynamic, meaning in practical terms that it is maintained even when the cable is pulled in any direction. The material is a high-performance plastic with excellent impact and vibration resistance and a wide working temperature range of -40°C to +105°C). The connectors are also resistant to salt spray (for 500 hours) and UV, giving greater reliability in outdoor use.

The UTS is fitted with the ergonomic ‘TRIM TRIO’ family locking mechanism, whereby a 1/3-turn bayonet locking with a tactile and audible click ensures a proper connection. It is guaranteed for 250 mating cycles and can be used for Ethernet 10 BaseT, 100 BaseTX and 1000 BaseT, TIA/EIA 568B Cat5e and ISO/IEC 11801 class D networks.
