R&M Solutions

R&M (Reichle & De-Massari) presents the next generation of the field mountable RJ45 connector for individual LAN cabling. The FM45 EL Cat. 6A.

The newly designed FM45 comes with a die-cast zinc metal housing. This makes the RJ45 connector suitable for LAN cabling in harsh or electromagnetically stressed industrial environments. Tool free assembly in two minutes. R&M's quick-assembly technology and IDC wiring simplify the job. Installers do not need any special tools and can perform the assembly error-free on the very first go. The video presents the three versions of the FM45 EL Cat. 6A. R&M manufactures the versions:

• Standard
• Slim
• Angled

See the very short wiring process.
The strands of the twisted-pair copper cable are inserted into the wiring block in just a few steps.
Contacting by IDC is done when the housing cover is closed.
The tin-plated R&M insulation displacement connectors ensure long-term stable, gas-tight, strain-resistant, vibration- and corrosion-protected wiring of stranded and solid wire cables.

Easy to operate.
A lever supports the handling of the latch.This makes it easy to unplug the RJ45 connector even in tightly packed patch panels or inconvenient locations on ceilings, floors, and ducts.
The Slim connector version is suitable for locations with restricted accessibility.
Here, the locking nose can be operated with a flat pull handle.
In the Angled version of R&M's field mountable RJ45 connector, the angled cable outlet can be rotated in 90° increments.

Versatile applications.
The FM45 Cat. 6A EL is an Ethernet category Cat. 6A connector in a full metal housing.
The plug is suitable for high-speed data transmission up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet in Class EA channels according to ISO/IEC 11801.
It also provides Power over Ethernet (PoE) up to the highest power level. Installers profit from flexibility and can decide how to lay the cable, where to cut it and where to place the connector.
The FM45 also enables installers to react to customer-specific requirements or plan amendments quickly.
