Push-Pull Plug Connectors Provide IP67 Protection For Data, Power Transmission

MIDDLETOWN, Pa. – The new VARIOSUB Push-Pull plug connector system from Phoenix Contact has a unique, user-friendly, plug-and-play positive locking system to provide IP67 protection.  Designed for Industrial Ethernet and PROFINET applications, the connector family enables transmission of data and power signals directly to local devices. 

The Push-Pull is available in three versions:  RJ45 for copper data transmission; SCRJ for fiber-optics data transmission; and COMBICON device connection technology for power transmission. 

The RJ45 and SCRJ contact inserts can be easily assembled in the field to ensure compatibility with control cabinet solutions.   The universal system allows data transmission in copper or fiber optic-based technology for all fiber types, provided they have the same external dimensions.  The new five-position power connector uses COMBICON device connection technology to power the device via two 24-volt circuits.

The connectors can be operated with one hand, simplifying network installation.  All three of the connection types are available in metal and plastic.  

Phoenix Contact is a world leader in electrical connection, electronic interface and industrial automation technologies.  A global company with annual sales exceeding 1 billion euro, Phoenix Contact GmbH & Co., Blomberg, Germany, operates 46 international subsidiaries, including Phoenix Contact USA in Middletown, Pa.  Phoenix Contact's formal Integrated Management Systems meet International Standards Organization (ISO) quality, environmental and safety requirements (ISO 9001:2000, 14001:2004 and 18001:1999).
