Fitting an IE FC cable 2 x 2 with an IE RJ-45 plug PRO
Introduction
The individual steps required to assemble a 4-wire IE FC cable and an IE RJ-45 plug Pro are
explained below.
Refer to the information in this section "Industrial Ethernet FastConnect stripping tool
(Page 8)" and the installation instructions for the plug.
Note
Instructions for assembly
The insulation-piercing contacts of the IE RJ-45 plug Pro can be released and
recontacted up to 10 times.
Once the ends of cables have made contact, do not make contact with them again but cut
them off.
Do not pull on the plug when releasing it.
To assemble a cable with crossed over wires, connect the color-coded wires at one end
of the cable in the connector as shown below:
–
connect white with yellow
–
connect blue with orange
Procedure
The IE RJ-45 plug Pro consists of the
following:
a: Forcing nut
b: Sealing ring
c: Rear wall
d: Latch
e: Contact holder
f: Casing
g: Metal foil
1.
Release the forcing nut (a) and the
sealing ring (b) from the back wall
(c) of the connector.
2.
Push the forcing nut (a), the sealing
ring (b) and the back wall (c) loosely
over the cable.
3.
In the stripping tool, use the yellow
knife cassette (12 mm).
If necessary, adjust the cutting dept
the knife cassette using the middle
socket-head screw.
