The HARTING Basic Ethernet switch kit contains everything needed for a simple industrial Ethernet implementation, including a five-port unmanaged switch, ten tool-less assembly RJ45 connectors and 20 metres of Cat 5 Type B Ethernet cable. In addition, the Basic+ kit contains a 24VDC/1.4A power supply and a HARTING cable stripping tool.
The RJ45 connectors and the new range of Cat 6 patch cables are part of HARTING’s Automation IT generic cabling system. The RJ45 has a unique two-part boot design that offers robust handling and bending protection. They are designed to be robust enough for industrial environments and are heat and flame retardant.
The Cat 6 patch cables offer Ethernet speeds of up to 1000 Mbit/s and are both flame retardant and halogen free. They operate at temperatures from -20°C to +80°C, have dual boot design with robust locking lever protection and unlocking latch and are perfect for multi-port applications.
