Belden Inc. (NYSE:BDC), a global leader in signal transmission solutions for mission-critical applications, has added rugged M12 shielded railway connectors to its Lumberg Automation product range. The new railway connectors are specially designed for use in trains while complying with EN 50155, IEC 61373 and DIN CLC/TS 50467 railway standards.
The M12 connectors are 4-pin D-coding (ProfiNet) and come in either a molded (single- or double-ended) cordset or field attachable version. The field-attachable version has threaded joints and spring-type terminals enabling simple assembly, while both feature Cat 5 and Cat 5e transmission characteristics in accordance with ISO IEC 11801 and TIA/EIA-568-B.2.
Having a number of choices ensures flexibility in the installation process.
"The robust design, high reliability and long service life of these connectors can be combined with OCTOPUS Industrial Ethernet switches from Hirschmann and Belden railway cables for cost-effective end-to-end solution," said Hiyam Wakeem, product manager.
There are a variety of applications suitable for these connectors, including networking control modules for doors and air conditioning in trains. The shielded railway connectors can also be used in combination with IP cameras or infotainment systems.
While the housings of the molded connectors are made of PA plastic, the field-attachable versions consist of nickel-plated die-cast zinc. There are a number of cable options and variable cable lengths including irradiated, halogen-free polymer (FRNC) with a 22-gauge cross-section diameter. The single- and double-ended ProfiNet cordsets are offered in lengths of 2, 5 or 10 meters. Other cable lengths are available upon request.
