RJ45 PANEL MOUNT CONNECTORS PRODUCTS CABLES & CONNECTORS
GT Contact’s new range of industrial specification RJ45 (Ethernet) panel mount connectors are now available from distributor Live Electronics. The connectors
provide fast data transfer Cat6 speeds and are available with a wide range of options. As such they can be used in equipment designed for demanding industrial applications, from factory-floor automation and control, to chemical, offshore and marine equipment. These are available with thermoplastic
(PA66) housings, which offer IP67 protection, or metal (nickel-plated copper alloy) housings, with IP68 protection. All the panel mount connectors are rear potted to maintain the integrity of the
panel seal even when the connector is unmated. Sealing caps are also available if required. Gold plated contacts are used throughout, for optimum and consistent data transfer speeds, with EMI/FRI shielding being fitted as standard.
In addition, the connectors are designed for 20.75mm
diameter or 20.75 x 19.2mm D-style panel cut-outs, with a choice of bayonet or screw connections. Options are available, for example being supplied as a coupler or with PCB-mount or pig-tail terminations.

FIELD WIREABLE CONNECTORS
The rugged and reliable M23 field wireable connectors from Mencom are flexible passive devices suitable for a variety of industrial signal and control applications. These feature a ‘crimp and poke’ method of
wire termination, which provides a quick solution where pre-moulded cordsets are not readily available, or where cabling needs to be repaired. In addition, the design of the pin and inserts has been improved, ensuring greater efficiency. A simple change to the way the pin is captivated in the insert makes wiring, and re-wiring if necessary, a quick and easy task. The pins and
sockets for the M23 19-pole products accept a wire gauge range of 24-18 AWG.

FLEXIBLE AND SAFE HIGH VOLTAGE MODULE LAUNCHED
ODU has expanded its proven ODU-MAC Blue-Line portfolio, with a new six contacts high-voltage module. With this compact solution, up to 1500V can be transmitted per contact – all with a small space requirement of only two units for six contacts. User protection was at the forefront of the development and is guaranteed by the contact protection on the socket side. A flexible termination cross-section of 0.14mm² to 1.5mm² offers variability and allows an optimal match to the respective strand. The versatile module is suitable for a range of
applications, including those found in the medical sector. ODU Connectors

BRONZE 90⁰ BACKSHELLS ADDED TO RANGE These 90˚ backshells are manufactured in-house
A new bronze right-angle backshell from Weald Electronics has been added to Lane Electronics’ range of connectors and accessories designed for use with D38999 and CECC derived bronze connectors. Bronze provides resistance to salt spray without suffering corrosion or binding, unlike stainless steel or plated aluminium alternatives. This enables their use in marine applications. 90˚ backshells allow for
a more compact cable bend than a conventional 90˚ heat shrink boot while still providing good mechanical protection and EMC performance. Right angle backshells are frequently used with cable plugs that are connecting to the front of equipment, where the compact dimensions allow the cable to be kept away from the equipment while in use. It is common to use the same teeth that mesh with the teeth on the back of connectors to allow the connection angle to be set or ‘clocked’ in a convenient position, helping to direct the cable away in exactly the desired direction.
by Weald Electronics, ensuring assembly and shipment is available on short lead-times. Lane Electronics offers a wide portfolio of connector accessories designed for high performance applications. Based around the latest series of backshells, adapters and protective dust caps from Weald Electronics, it also includes a very wide selection of heat shrinkable boots, tubing,
and shapes from HellermannTyton. Weald sealing and strain relief backshells are
manufactured in the UK and have been designed for MIL-DTL-26482 Series 1 and MIL-DTL-38999 (D38999) Series III and IV connector systems. Known as the LMA19 series, the backshells protect the cable and the integrity of the overall connection.

Positronic’s highly reliable, compact and fully QPL approved MIL-DTL-M24308 connector series is now available from Powell Electronics. These offer an operating temperature range
from -55˚C up to +125˚C. In addition, the connectors feature a standard or high-density layout, a wide variety of termination styles (crimp, solder cup, and straight or right-angle PCB mount), several contact variants (fixed contacts, size 20 crimp removable contacts, size 22 fixed and removable contacts), different package sizes and creative accessories. The MIL-DTL-M24308 range is said to be ideal
for applications where space and weight are at a premium, such as in high-density packages in military applications like military equipment, ground support devices and computer peripheral equipment. The can, however, also be used in modems, information systems, communication systems, industrial instrumentation, and in space flight equipment.
