Ethernet Connection System for
Harsh Environment
The Industrial Ethernet Solution
Description
Description
The RJField allows you to use an Ethernet Class D / Cat. 5e connection
for 10 BaseT,100 BaseTX or 1000 BaseT networks in harsh
environments:
• Sealed against fluids and dusts (IP67)
• Shock, Vibration and Traction resistant
• No cabling operation in field and no tools required
• Improved EMI Protection
With the patented RJStopsystem you can use a standard RJ45
cordset in a protective composite plug which will protect it from shocks,
dust and fluids.
No hazardous in-field cabling and grounding !
This RJF 544 plug is connected into a receptacle, using a quick user-
friendly Push Pull coupling mechanism.
On the receptacle, one female RJ45 is soldered onto a PCB allowing for
the following back terminations :
• another female RJ45
• a RJ45 cordset
• a solder termination
The RJ45 cordset shielding is transmitted to the RJ45 receptacle through
lateral grounding fingers.
For an outstanding EMI protection, a metallized (Ni) version of the RJF
544 receptacle is available and transmits the shielding directly to the
panel.
