RJ45 connectors with right angled grip body

October 2017 Enclosures, Cabling & Connectors

Escha now offers high-grade RJ45 patchcords with a right angled grip body designed to facilitate optimal cable runs in applications with limited space. The overmoulded grip body averts snapped off or broken cables and thus guarantees faultless data transmission according to Cat5e. The patchcords meet IP20 protection class requirements and are specially adapted for automation solutions within the switch cabinet.

More patchcords in tight space

The trend towards advanced system decentralisation makes smaller and smaller switch cabinets necessary. Therefore, patchcords must be installed in tighter and tighter spaces, which can cause snapped off or even broken cables consequently leading to a lower data transmission, loss of data, or standstill. Cables with right angled RJ45 patchcords can be particularly space-saving as the overmoulded grip body provides for safety, stability and guarantees safe data transmission.

In order to satisfy all individual requirements, Escha offers the new cords in ‘right angled on right angled‘ as well as ‘right angled on straight‘ variants. Thanks to UL-certification, all can be used on the North American market.

Original accessories

For RJ45 connectors deeply placed in ports with their release lug hard or not at all accessible, Escha has a multi-clip on offer. This is easily plugged onto the grip body providing for fast locking and unlocking. The multi-clip is available in eleven colours and does not only fit on the previously available straight grip bodies, but also on the new right angled versions.
