Electrical Wiring and Connecting

Ethernet Cable

Send data between computers, servers, and switches in an office or workstation.

Continuous-Flex Ethernet Cable

Often used in automated applications that require continuous motion, this cable sends data between computers, servers, and switches without degrading signal transmission.

Duct-Rated Ethernet Cable

Also known as plenum cable, this cable has low-smoke insulation and can be used without conduit in ductwork and above a drop ceiling. Use it to send data between computers, servers, and switches.

Duct-Rated Oil-Resistant Ethernet Cable

Also known as plenum cable, this cable has low-smoke insulation and can be used without conduit in ductwork and above a drop ceiling. It has an oil-resistant insulation to protect wires as the cable moves from duct to equipment or machinery.

Oil-Resistant Ethernet Cable

Transmit data in rough industrial applications. This cable has an oil-resistant insulation.

Ethernet Cords

Use these unshielded cords where signal interference is not a concern.

Shielded Ethernet Cords

The shielding blocks signal interference from nearby equipment and devices.

Panel-Mount Ethernet Cords

Use these unshielded cords where signal interference is not a concern.

Shielded Panel-Mount Ethernet Cords

Often used in labs, storage facilities, and offices, the shielding blocks low to moderate signal interference from nearby equipment and devices. These cords have a flange on the socket end to mount them in a panel cutout.

Ethernet Cords with M12 Connectors

The M12 threaded connectors on these cords are more vibration resistant than RJ45 connectors.

Continuous-Flex Ethernet Cords

Often used in automated applications such as robotics, these cords withstand continuous motion without degrading data transmission. They have an RJ45 plug on each end.

Ethernet Cords with M12 and RJ45 Connectors

Send data between computers, printers, servers, and switches with these cords—they have an M12 plug or socket on one end and an RJ45 plug on the other.

USB Adapters

Transmit data between computers, connect two like cables, or connect devices that have different USB sizes or styles.

M8 Ethernet Connectors

Two-thirds the size of M12 connectors, these connectors fit into tight spaces and shield against signal interference.

Screw-Together Wet-Location
RJ45 Connectors and Cords

Use these connectors and cords to make Ethernet connections in wet location environments.
