TE Connectivity’s circular hybrid connector with 8 power and 4 signal contacts, has been designed for machine automation applications requiring a higher performance data connection and power of up to 10 A. The connector provides highly reliable connection technology and meets the demanding durability and quality requirements of real-time Ethernet applications in industrial automation. Combining power supply and signal into one single connector provides customers with greater flexibility in machine architecture. With VARAN-bus standard compatibility, the connector supports, for example, fast change over times of molds in molding machines, and simplified cabling reduces installation time by up to 50%.
