Ethernet Media Specifications

Introduction

As Ethernet is increasingly used in industrial control, survival of physical media in rugged or harsh environments is becoming a necessity.
The high speed of network protocol allows it to be used in applications where other networks fall short. EtherNet/IP™ uses both standard
Ethernet and TCP/IP technologies and an open application layer protocol that is called the Control and Information Protocol (CIP). This
application layer is the same as used in DeviceNet® and ControlNet® networks.

Rockwell Automation® Cat 5e Ethernet cables are designed to supply a network connection with excellent reliability in harsh surroundings.
By optimizing the balance of twisted-pair conductors inside a robust Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) jacket, data is protected from noise,
chemicals, and mechanical issues to M3I3C3E3 environmental protection levels. The cable is available in RJ45 patchcords for IP20
applications or in four-pin D-coded M12 patchcords for IP67 applications where high vibration, fluids, and other contaminants can threaten
the reliability of a network.

M12 D-code field attachable insulation displacement connectors (IDC) are available in both shielded and unshielded housings with male or
female connectors. Male eight-pin RJ45 connectors are available in both a crimp termination and a toolless IDC connector for custom
cabling.

Rockwell Automation M12 to RJ45 bulkhead connectors provide an elegant transition for network architecture from an IP20 setting to an IP67
environment. The adapter can be used to connect remote junction boxes or implement an On-Machine™ solution with Armor™ I/O products.

The Rockwell Automation Ethernet media portfolio provides connectivity with excellent reliability to maintain network integrity and reduces
costly downtime from troubleshooting.

D-Code Cordset

Features

• Over molded housing suitable for IP67 applications and harsh
industrial environments where extreme vibration, shock,
chemicals, and temperature are found.

• Flex-rated cable (must be tied down and not flexed within
152 mm [6 in.] of the connector).

• Custom termination of single-ended cordsets with one of
several field attachable connectors.

• Designed to ODVA EtherNet/IP specifications and
ISO IEC 24702, IEC 61918.

• Twisted pairs maintain signal balance through cable to
provide high noise immunity and return loss.

• Suitable for noise environments M
