Ruggedized RJ45 Data
Connector
Ethercon® provides solutions for data transfer in harsh and
demanding applications. These connectors are especially
applicable for Ethernet networking in audio, commercial,
entertainment, live stage production, DMX lighting, industrial and outdoor internet access environments.
The Ethercon
®
series offers male cable carriers, assembled
female receptacles, feedthrough jacks, cable coupler and
shielded versions with or without illumination possibilities by LEDs. The male cable end offers a rugged diecast
metal shell as a carrier for pre-assembled RJ45 plugs, which
does not require the re-termination of the cable assembly.
Female chassis receptacles are based on the current Neutrik
®
“A & B” series as well the “D” series of XLR receptacles
with secure latching system - a feature not found on other
RJ45 receptacles. Terminations include horizontal and vertical PCB or IDC. Colour coding is available for both the cable
carriers and the receptacles for ease of identification.
Neutrik
®
Ethercon® receptacles comply with CAT5e (IDC
versions) or Class D (PCB versions), shielded or unshielded
according to TIA / EIA 586B and ISO / EC 11801 standard.

Neutrik‘s latest innovation, the new ruggedized RJ45 CAT6 connection system, provides solutions for high bandwidth
data transfer in harsh and demanding environments. This series offers additional headroom for high performance Fast
Ethernet 100BaseT and Gigabit Ethernet 1000BaseT connectivity in audio, lighting, live stage and industrial environments and even guarantees to be prepared for future 10 Gbit applications (true CAT6). The EtherCon CAT6 series
offers a D-shape panel connector with metal housing and secure latching system. Tool-free IDC termination makes
cable assembly easy and fast. The preassembled CAT6 patch cables use a shielded S/FTP cable with cable plug carrier
offering a robust metal shell and Push-Pull locking system. Integrated sealing rings make the system dust and water-
proof to IP 54 rating.
Features & Benefits:
●
CAT6 performance – fast data transmission and high bandwidth applications
●
CAT6 specifications according TIA / EIA 568B, ISO / IEC 11801, EN 50173
●
Shielded system - high noise immunity and EMI protection
●
Push Pull mating - secure and proven locking system
●
D-shape metal panel connector
●
Ground lead jumper on panel connector with selectable grounding option
●
IDC termination without tool
●
