Passive components such as cables and connectors that meet the unique needs of the respective place of application are used to make the physical connection. For this purpose, cables
with increased protection requirements against fires and their effects in bus and rail vehicles, as well as connectors with increased mechanical load and protection class, which still function perfectly even under strong vibrations and mechanical vibrations, are used.
The product range for bus and rail vehicle applications includes M12 plugs and jacks (D and X coded) for field assembly, as well as cable assemblies with different transmission properties (Cat.5, Cat.7) and lengths. These can be combined with a variety of connectors, including RJ45 and M12 connectors. Choosing the right Ethernet connector for bus and rail vehicles depends on the specific requirements of the application.
METZ CONNECT provides you with the appropriate cable assemblies and connectors to the highest quality standards, which are manufactured and tested in accordance with current
standards and regulations. Connectors from the product range establish a secure connection to Ethernet networks.
