Robust, compact and high-speed I/O connectors

Supporting CAT5e (1Gbps) and CAT6A (10Gbps) cabling, the ix Industrial Series I/O connector features an optimised EMI/ESD shielding design for safe and secure data transmission up to 10Gbps.

ix Industrial is compliant with IEC/ PAS 61076-3-124. The range feature receptacles and plugs with two keying codes for Ethernet and non-Ethernet applications.

There are two receptacle types within the range. The upright right angle type can be mounted in parallel with a pitch distance of only 10mm to save space. The vertical type allows the mating plug to be mated from the top giving design flexibility.

The receptacle shell is mounted on the board via through-hole solder legs to enhance the retention to the board and to resist the wrenching of the cable assembly, protecting the surface-mount contacts.

The plugs are available in IDC or solder type. The wire-termination unit and cable clamp are integrated into a single plug shell, which prevents the connecting part of the cable assembly from being affected by the load on the cable.

Suitable applications are factory automation controllers, servo amplifiers, industrial robotics, servers, programmable logic controllers, security systems and others.
