Ethernet and EtherCAT Cables and Connectors

Murrelektronik has the right connection for every application:

• Field-wireable M12 and RJ45 connectors
• Pre-wired and molded Models for RJ45, M8, M12 D-/X-/Y-coded
• Large variety of cable qualities: from PVC jackets for fixed cable installations to highly flexible PUR cables with a wire cross section of 0.34mm² for torsion and bending, for example in C-track applications
• 360° shielding provides resistance to external interferences
• All pre-wired connectors are 100% tested
• UL-approved

Murrelektronik also offers an Industrial Ethernet as a standard for specific user protocols. All types of shielded M8 connectors are available for EtherCAT as well other communication technologies, a special Cat.5e cable for C-track applications. The push-pull power and push-pull data connectors (copper and optical fiber) for further Industrial Ethernet variants are available as field-wireable and pre-wired models.

RJ45 and M12 D-coded connectors:

• straight or angled versions
