TRI-START THREADING COUPLING SYSTEM

Amphenol RJ Field series connectors allow for the use of an Ethernet Class D/ CAT5e connection for Ethernet over twisted-pair networks in harsh environments. The Amphenol RJ Field series are circular metal connectors with tri-start threading coupling systems. These connectors are excellent for harsh conditions - the Amphenol RJ Field series’ RJStop® connection system protects from shock, dust and fluid. RoHS options are available for RJF series connectors. No hazardous on-field cabling and grounding required!
