Interconnection
For generic cabling in control cabinets, the fibre-optic DIN mount rail distribution box from Telegärtner offers outlets and distributors which can be mounted directly next to one another on a conventional TH35 rail by simply clicking them into place.

This forms a connection between the arriving installation lines and the wiring inside the control cabinet.
The STX mounting rail distributors are available for either loose-tube, mini-breakout or breakout cables of up to 12 fibres using splice techniques or for fibre-optic adapters using preassembled fibre-optic links. Fibre-optic adaptor types including ST, SC Duplex, SC-RJ, LC Duplex, E2000 and E2000 Compact can be installed in the interchangeable front panel. Installers can flexibly feed the cable from three directions while maintaining minimum bending radii using a storage reserve with additional cable retainers. For loose-tube cables, the distributors are supplied with ready-to-supply, coloured pigtails and cable strain relief.
The Cat6A AMJ 10 Gigabit Ethernet System is a tuned system of structured cabling components designed to work together, delivering standards-compliant 10 Gigabit Ethernet/category 6A channel transmission over 100 metres. The system provides headroom beyond 500 MHz and adds protection against ANEXT and EMI.
The Telegärtner cable for this system is round with a small outside diameter. These features allow increased pathway inside standard conduits, raceways and cable organisers. The round construction and smaller outside diameter provide an advantage over Category 6A STP when retrofitting or pulling new runs. The AMJ 10 Gigabit Ethernet S/FTP system has been third party verified for category 6A channel requirements and ostensibly tested to support existing PoE applications and exceeds proposed PoE +.
The Cat6A AMJ 10 Gigabit Ethernet System jack is inversely orientated with right angled IDC contacts and has a tool-less jack termination
