Split-housing data cable feed-through connector range expanded

Wieland Electric has expanded its portfolio of Revos rectangular connectors with the new IT Series split-housing data cable feed-through connectors, which enable up to four pre-terminated data cables to be safely routed through a control cabinet or enclosure wall. The IT Series data cable feed-through connectors accommodate cables with diameters spanning 4mm to 9mm, and are rated for IP65 environmental protection against dust and water ingress. In addition, the connector’s design incorporates a strain-relief feature to further enhance the robustness of the connection. “More networked and automated machines on factory floors mean more specialized, pre-terminated cables, all of which need to be safely and conveniently routed through control cabinet or enclosure walls,” said Martin Lalonde, application engineer, Wieland Electric. “The Revos IT Series’ split housing is ideally suited for passing preassembled cables, like encoder, data, and other unique cables, while maintaining the quality and signal integrity of the OEM cabling, and providing the convenience and robustness of industrial rectangular connectors.”
