The part number **Y-CONC-R40CU-RJ6P-2000-C** refers to a high-performance, industrial-grade industrial Ethernet cable assembly, typically associated with the **Y-Con** series by **Yamaichi Electronics**. These components are designed for harsh environments where standard RJ45 connectors would fail due to vibration, moisture, or electrical interference. --- ### Technical Specifications Breakdown | Feature | Specification Details | | :--- | :--- | | **Series** | Y-Con (Industrial Ethernet) | | **Connector Type A** | RJ45 IP20/IP67 (with metal cover/shroud) | | **Connector Type B** | RJ45 IP20/IP67 | | **Cable Length** | 2000mm (2 Meters) | | **Wiring Configuration** | 6-Pole (4 Power + 2 Data or customized) | | **Cable Material** | PUR (Polyurethane) or High-Flex PVC | | **Shielding** | S/FTP or SF/UTP (Double Shielded) | --- ### Key Electronic & Mechanical Components #### 1. The Connector Housing (Y-ConCover) The "R40" segments usually refer to the ruggedized outer casing. Unlike consumer plastic clips, this uses a **die-cast metal or high-impact plastic shell** that provides: * **EMI/EMC Protection:** Prevents signal degradation in factories with heavy machinery. * **Vibration Resistance:** Integrated locking mechanisms to prevent accidental disconnects. #### 2. The 6-Pole Interface (RJ6P) While standard Ethernet uses 8 pins, the Y-Con system often utilizes a specific **6-pin or 6+2 configuration**: * **Data:** High-speed Cat5e or Cat6 transmission. * **Power:** Integrated power contacts (often used for Power over Ethernet or direct DC supply to sensors/actuators) without needing a separate power cable. #### 3. High-Flex Cable (CU) The "CU" designation typically points to **Copper** conductors optimized for: * **Torsion Resistance:** Suitable for robotic arms or cable tracks. * **Oil Resistance:** The outer jacket is treated to resist industrial lubricants and coolants. --- ### Common Applications * **Industrial Automation:** Connecting PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers) to HMIs. * **Robotics:** Wiring for motion control where cables are constantly flexing. * **Outdoor Infrastructure:** Used in telecommunications where IP67 (waterproof) protection is required. ---
