The IT CONNECT E-DAT Module REG 8(8) IP20 from Metz Connect is a universal data connection unit designed for modular DIN rail installation. With a width of 1TE (> 18mm) according to DIN 42880, this module provides a reliable solution for data transmission. It is classified with an IP 20 protection rating and supports data transmission rates of up to 10 GBit/s according to the IEEE 802.3an standard. The zinc die-cast housing is surface-finished and contains a individually shielded RJ45 socket. The module's design consists of only two parts, making installation and maintenance easier. The large-area shield connection is equipped with a spring-loaded, non-removable shield connection clamp that ensures a secure connection. The module is suitable for use with Category 6A, 7, and 7A cables and meets the relevant standards and certifications that guarantee high transmission bandwidth.
