In addition to the common RJ45, network cables can also use many different connectors, mainly depending on the specific application scenario.
1. Industrial use
- ix Industrial: Smaller and more durable than RJ45, suitable for industrial automation equipment.
- M12 X-coded: Circular waterproof interface, very common in industrial networks.
- M8 D-coded: Smaller than M12, suitable for industrial occasions with limited space.
- Push-Pull connector: PushPull interfaces from manufacturers such as Harting and TE are easy to plug and unplug and suitable for harsh environments.
2. High-speed network and data center
- GG45 (ARJ45): An upgraded version of RJ45 that can support higher transmission frequencies.
- Tera: An interface with Cat 7 or above standards launched by Siemon, but incompatible with RJ45.
- MATEnet: A high-speed data connection solution launched by TE Connectivity, used in automobiles and industrial equipment.
- EtherCON: Neutrik's RJ45 with locking function, used a lot in stage audio and video equipment.
3. Fiber-related interfaces (optical and optical hybrid transmission)
Fiber-optic connectors such as SC, LC, and MTP/MPO are often used with network cables.
4. Špeciálne použitie
- Vodotesné RJ45% 3a s tesnením krúžkom a krytom % 2c vhodné pre vonkajšie alebo priemyselné prostredie.
- PoE dedicated interface: There are also versions that specifically support PoE, such as M12 or ix Industrial.
- Letectvo zástrčka rozhranie: môže byť videný na vojenský a letecký vybavený.
Ktoré rozhranie použitie závisí od scéna požiadavky. Ak to je pre špeciálne odvetvia také ako priemysel, dáta centrum, a namontované na vozidle, výber rozhrania je tiež iné.
