Based on the part number provided, this appears to be a specialized **Industrial Ethernet or RJ45 Cable Assembly**, likely within the **Y-Con** series (commonly associated with Yamaichi Electronics). This series is designed for harsh industrial environments where standard RJ45 connectors would fail due to vibration, moisture, or electrical interference. --- ### Part Number Breakdown & Specifications The nomenclature typically follows this structure: | Component Segment | Definition | Description | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **Y-CON** | Series Name | Yamaichi’s industrial RJ45 system. | | **C-R422M** | Cable/Connector Type | Likely indicates an RS-422/485 or High-Flex Ethernet capability. | | **RJ6P** | Interface | RJ45 6-pin (or 8P6C) configuration. | | **2000** | Length | 2000mm (2.0 Meters). | | **C** | Special Feature | Often denotes Shielding (Covered) or a specific Category rating. | --- ### Key Technical Features ### 1. Robust Housing Unlike standard office-grade RJ45 plugs, the Y-Con series often features an integrated protective housing. This provides **IP20 to IP67/68** protection when used with the appropriate mating sockets, making it resistant to oil, water, and dust. ### 2. High-Flex Cable Construction The "R422M" designation often implies the cable is designed for **motion applications**. * **Vibration Resistance:** Secure locking mechanisms prevent accidental disconnection. * **Flex Life:** Designed for use in cable tracks or robotic arms. ### 3. Electrical Performance * **Data Rate:** Usually supports Cat 5 or Cat 5e standards (suitable for Fast Ethernet). * **Shielding:** Enhanced EMI/EMC protection to prevent signal loss near high-voltage industrial motors. * **Power over Ethernet (PoE):** Many Y-Con parts include additional power contacts to transmit power alongside data. --- ### Common Applications * **Industrial Automation:** Connecting PLCs to HMIs or sensors. * **CNC Machinery:** Data transmission in high-interference environments. * **Vision Systems:** Connecting industrial cameras to processing units. ---
