Heavy-duty sealed connectors with MATEnet inserts for Ethernet plus power transmission

Mouser is now shipping the Heavy-Duty Sealed Connectors with MATEnet Inserts from TE Connectivity. 

TE Connectivity has leveraged the rugged reliability and scalability of its heavy-duty sealed connector series housings with high-performance MATEnet inserts to offer designers a versatile connector that incorporates power and Ethernet connectivity up to 1Gbps.

These hybrid signal-to-power connectors are highly adaptable and modular Ethernet connector solutions made to fit a variety of customer needs for data and power transmission applications in the industrial automotive market. They are scalable for use with jacketed unshielded twisted pair (UTP) and shielded twisted pair (STP) cables and provide designers with the flexibility of wire-to-wire, wire-to-device and wire-to-board configurations.

For Ethernet and communication capabilities, these connectors help meet current and future data requirements by enabling speeds from 100 Mbps to 1 Gbps, being fully compliant with industry-standard protocols IEEE802.3bw, 100BASE-T1 and 1000BASE-T1. Based on application requirements, these connectors also support hybrid design options for multiple Ethernet ports and power pin configurations with numerous wire sizes to expand usage opportunities. Target industrial applications include network backbones, sensors, camera systems, sealed controllers, gateways/switches, radar/LiDAR, as well as use in heavy/medium duty trucks, buses, agricultural machinery and construction.
