Tyco Electronics – Metal-shell IP67 Industrial Ethernet connectors

A new IP67-rated metal-shell ODVA-compliant connector from Tyco Electronics allows Industrial Ethernet to be applied in the most rugged environments. The Zamak zinc-alloy metal shell gives additional mechanical strength, while the IP67 sealing protects the interface from liquids, gases, and other contaminants. The connectors meet Category 5e performance requirements.

The 8-position connectors are available in plugs or receptacles, either shielded or unshielded, with end caps additionally available to protect unmated connectors. The quick-turn bayonet coupling and positive locking ring, which meet the requirement of IEC 61076-3-106 Variant 1, help provide reliable connections under harshest conditions. The HBT sealing gaskets are UV resistant. The connectors have an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.

The new metal-shell connectors join the expanding lineup of IP67-rated, ODVA-compliant performance connectors suited for EtherNet/IP, DeviceNet, and ControlNet applications. The metal-shell versions are particularly suited to applications requiring extra mechanical and environmental robustness—including industrial machinery, diagnostic equipment, communications equipment, outdoor signs, and theatrical audio/visual equipment for live outdoor events.
Standard-length cable assemblies are also available as part of the offering.
