PROFINET Connector | RJ45 Fast Connect Plug 180°

The RJ45 Fast Connect Plug 180° is an industrial-grade PROFINET connector for joining PROFINET cables to network components, switches, and end devices in machine and plant environments. The straight outlet is suited for installations where cable routing exits directly from the connector without requiring an angled exit, including applications with generous cable management clearance or where straight-through routing simplifies installation. Color-coded insulation displacement contacts simplify termination and allow for a visual wiring check after connection.

Available in a 90° angled version for installations where space constraints or bend radius requirements call for an angled cable exit.

Key Features
180° Straight Outlet: Direct cable exit suited for installations with sufficient clearance for straight-through routing, including open cable trays, terminal boxes, and network component connections with standard bend radius allowance.

Fast Connect IDC Termination: Insulation displacement contacts allow quick, tool-assisted termination to IE FC TP PROFINET cable without stripping individual conductors.

Color-Coded Contacts: Contact elements are color-marked to simplify correct wiring and reduce the risk of connection errors during installation or field replacement.

Visual Wiring Check: Connector design allows visual verification of correct contact seating after termination.

Industrial Metal Housing: Rugged metal housing suited for industrial environments with operating temperatures from -20°C to +70°C and protection rating IP20.

Common Applications
-Connecting PROFINET cables to controllers, I/O devices, switches, and other network components during system commissioning

-Field termination of PROFINET runs where straight cable routing aligns with cabinet layout and cable management design

-Replacement of damaged or failed field connectors during maintenance without re-pulling cable?

-New PROFINET infrastructure installations requiring reliable, standardized RJ45 connectivity up to 100 Mbps
