Simpler all over: MFP8 Cat.6A applications

The new field assembly MFP8 Cat.6A is the number one choice whenever efficient and reliable connections are needed without major expense or effort, whether for classic cabling systems in office buildings, data centers, in industry or for home cabling systems. Needless to say, it also supports High Power over Ethernet (PoE+).

  • Office/premise cabling and data centers

    With the MFP8 Cat.6A, installers and network professionals now have access to an RJ45 plug which will enable them to respond with speed and flexibility, even at short notice, to any requirement, be it cabling for workstations, connections for equipment or backbone extensions.

    Connections can be made with all standard cable types, even with transfer rates of 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBase-T), without requiring hours of preparation and without the need for special tools. It is particularly cost-effective for connections in data centers where every centimeter counts. Space problems due to surplus cable are consigned to the history books.

    Thanks to its compact design and suitablility for multiport applications, the MFP8 Cat.6A can also be used where space is at an absolute premium.

  • Industrial cabling (IP20)

    Whether used in industrial control cabinets or in distribution boxes in production, the MFP8 Cat.6A can also be relied upon in industry. The 360° shielding and full metal housing guarantee secure and reliable data transmission, including with 10 Gigabit Ethernet and even with outside electric interference. And the use of the full range of cable types with solid or stranded conductors from AWG24/1 to 22/1 and AWG27/7 to 22/7 make it a universal product fit for all purposes.

  • Cabling in the home

    When it comes to home networks or cabling for the home-based office, adhering to a minimum footprint is normally a major requirement, and only very rarely is there an outlet just where one is needed. In order to be able to connect the PC, router or printer quickly, easily and cheaply, a plug is needed which can be fitted without special tools to the full range of cable types with solid or stranded wires.

    The MFP8 Cat.6A also enables non-professionals to assemble and customise cables – as and where they are needed – and to establish efficient and reliable connections without spending a great deal of time and money.

Simpler all round: Fitting the MFP8 Cat.6A

The MFP8 Cat.6A consists of just two parts which can be assembled quickly and securely in three simple steps.

    Step 1: Connect cable

    Remove cable jacket, move cable shielding backwards and prepare wires by untwisting pairs and inserting them in the wire manager. The integrated assembling aid protects the board and facilitates this process. The print is highly visible and is available in colour code T568A or T568B. Press wire manager together with a plier and cut off excess wires.

    Step 2: Insert in plug housing

    Remove assembling aid and insert board with wires connected in plug housing. The wire manager is designed so that it can only be inserted in the housing the right way up.

    Step 3: Close plug

    The cable relief is hinged to ensure 360° shielding and effective strain relief on the cable. The snap-in mechanism can be adjusted to tailor the amount of grip to the cable diameter in any given case. And the cap protects the plug contacts from dust and dirt.
