M12 Cat 6 connector

The Brad Micro-Change M12 Cat 6 connector handles Gigabit Ethernet speeds, is IP68-rated and designed to provide secure and safe electrical connections in harsh or hostile conditions. The 2 shielding crosses inside the cable connector and receptacle overlap when mated preventing system noise from interfering with the signal integrity. The 4 pair mating interface is standardised to IEC 61076-2-10x, with ODVA certification pending. Each individual conductor pair is crossshielded throughout the connector; ensuring signal integrity is maintained. For rugged applications and high-vibration environments, it features 2 points of contact per male and female conductor pair, ensuring a robust and reliable contact interface. The range of IP68- rated environmentally sealed, waterproof connectors meets the needs of traditional areas in Process & Automation Control, but also the rigours of other applications that require high speed data in harsh environments. An Ultra-Lock version of the M12 Cat 6 connector is in development that will provide IP69K rating.
