Prelink Makes Data-Network Installation Simpler

Harting Ha-VIS prelink is a new installation concept for data-network cabling, based on the ISO/IEC 11801 standard, to simplify cabling and save installation time when integrating office IT systems. The technology also enables extensions and conversions without incurring significant interruptions in ongoing operations. Harting Ha-VIS prelink is designed for use with a wide range of mating faces such as RJ45 to IP 20, RJ45 PushPull according to IP 65/67 or M12, thereby opening up a wealth of opportunities and potential for users.

The Harting Ha-VIS prelink concept includes components for 10GB Ethernet transmission rates. It is a key element in Harting's Automation IT concept, designed to provide a seamless Ethernet-based communications platform for integrating office IT systems with industrial automation to optimise workflow efficiency in the manufacturing environment. Ha-VIS prelink technology supports a standardised cabling solution in which the Class EA link is created before the mating face is chosen.

The technology supports connectors that are specified for structured industrial building cabling, as well as connectors for automation profiles. Users are able to mix and match the mating faces and housings, which feature protection ratings ranging from IP20 to IP67. The new system combines pre-fabricated prelink cabling links with prelink connectors. The data cable, with cable terminals crimped on at both ends, forms the prelink cable link that is the functional backbone of the cabling system.

The cable terminals, which dress the ends of the cable and act like end ferrules, offer advanced functionality in a small package with minimal increase in cable diameter. Because Ha-VIS prelink ensures both the electrical and the HF performance of the prelink connection, the pre-terminated cable can be combined with any mating face, providing flexibility and ease of use. The prelink connector simply snaps on to the prelink cable terminal, then the complete unit forms an ISO/IEC 11801 (EN 50173)-compliant permanent link or an end-to-end link that complies with Profinet automation profiles.
