The component is an Ethernet patch panel for DIN rail
mounting. It represents the transition of the field cabling to
the internal control cabinet cabling.
The connection from the patch panel to the end device is
ensured with a prefabricated patch cable via the RJ45
socket (CAT5e).
Features
–10/100/1000Mbps
–Mounting on a DIN rail
–Safe shield connection to ground potential
–Various connection options depending on the product
version
–RJ45 socket
–Screw terminal blocks
–Push-in connection
–IDC connection
Make sure you always use the latest documentation.
It can be downloaded from the product at phoenixcontact.net/products.
The PP-RJ... patch panels are compatible with the devices of the FL-PP... product family.
When replacing FL-PP... devices with PP-RJ... devices, strip an additional 1.4cm of the cable sheath away.

NOTE: Interference
Only use shielded twisted pair cables and
corresponding shielded RJ45 connectors.
7.1Mounting
Figure 7Mounting on a DIN rail
The device is intended for installation in a control cabinet.
•Connect a 35mm ENDIN rail to the protective earth via
a grounding terminal block. The device is grounded by
snapping it onto the DIN rail.
•Snap the device onto the DIN rail.
7.2Removal
•Only twisted pair cables with an impedance of 100Ω
can be connected to the RJ45 Ethernet interface.
•Insert the Ethernet cable with the RJ45 plug into the TP
interface until the plug engages audibly. Observe the
plug keying.
Figure 9Pin assignment
Figure 8Removal
•Push down the locking tab with a screwdriver, needlenose pliers or similar.
•Slightly pull the bottom edge of the device away from
the mounting surface.
•Pull the device away from the DIN rail.
