METZ CONNECT RJ45

METZ CONNECT is a German manufacturer of connectivity solutions for voice, data, and industrial networking applications. The company's product portfolio includes RJ45 connectors, housings, keystone jacks, and field-assemblable plugs designed for structured cabling systems. METZ CONNECT components are used in building automation, industrial Ethernet, and telecommunications infrastructure where reliable signal transmission and mechanical robustness are required. The brand is known for its E-DAT series, which includes Cat6 and Cat6A rated connectors, and for offering products with IP65-rated housings suitable for harsh environments. METZ CONNECT RJ45 products are available in various form factors: surface-mount housings in thermoplastic or steel, rail-mount keystone jacks with zinc die-cast construction, and field jack inserts for cable mounting. The housings are offered in port configurations from 2 to 8 ports, all unequipped (without pre-installed connectors), allowing integrators to populate them with compatible keystone jacks. The steel housings are finished in white, while thermoplastic versions are gray. Mounting angles include 90° and 180° options to accommodate different cable entry directions. For industrial applications, METZ CONNECT provides RJ45 field jack assemblies with IP65 protection, zinc die-cast housings, and insulation displacement connections (IDC) for tool-less termination. These components support Cat6 performance and are designed for use in factory floors, outdoor enclosures, and other demanding settings. 3G Electric supplies METZ CONNECT RJ45 housings, keystone jacks, and field jack inserts from stock, supporting procurement for structured cabling projects, network infrastructure upgrades, and industrial Ethernet deployments. The product range covers both standard voice/data applications and industrial-grade connectivity, with options for surface, rail, and cable mounting. All components are sourced directly from METZ CONNECT, ensuring traceability and compliance with original specifications.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about METZ CONNECT RJ45 from 3G Electric.

What materials are used in METZ CONNECT RJ45 housings?

METZ CONNECT RJ45 housings are available in two primary materials: thermoplastic and steel. The thermoplastic housings (e.g., MPN 1309430003KE) are gray and suitable for general-purpose surface mounting. The steel housings (e.g., MPN 130861-0202-E) are white and offer increased mechanical strength for environments where impact resistance is a concern. Both types are unequipped, meaning they do not include pre-installed connectors, allowing you to select compatible keystone jacks separately.

Are METZ CONNECT RJ45 housings suitable for outdoor or harsh environments?

Standard METZ CONNECT RJ45 housings (thermoplastic or steel) are designed for indoor use in structured cabling applications. For harsh environments, METZ CONNECT offers the E-DAT Industry series, such as the RJ45 Field Jack Insert (MPN 1401145512KE), which features an IP65 rating and a zinc die-cast housing. These field jack assemblies are suitable for outdoor enclosures, factory floors, and other areas exposed to dust, moisture, or mechanical stress.

What is the difference between equipped and unequipped METZ CONNECT RJ45 housings?

Unequipped housings, such as the 1309430003KE or 130861-0202-E, do not include any RJ45 connectors or keystone jacks pre-installed. They are empty enclosures that allow you to insert your own compatible keystone jacks (e.g., Cat6 or Cat6A) based on your cabling requirements. Equipped housings come with connectors already installed. The unequipped option provides flexibility for custom configurations and future upgrades.

What mounting options are available for METZ CONNECT RJ45 keystone jacks?

METZ CONNECT RJ45 keystone jacks, such as the rail-mount model (MPN 130B21D1APL-E), are designed for installation on DIN rails or similar mounting systems. These jacks feature a zinc die-cast housing and an IDC connection on one side and an RJ45 port on the other, with a 180° mounting angle. They are suitable for use in patch panels, distribution boxes, or industrial control cabinets where space is limited.

Can METZ CONNECT RJ45 field jack inserts be terminated without special tools?

Yes, the METZ CONNECT E-DAT Industry RJ45 Field Jack Insert (MPN 1401145512KE) uses insulation displacement connection (IDC) technology, which allows termination of solid or stranded conductors without the need for a punch-down tool. This tool-less design simplifies field installation and reduces labor time, making it suitable for on-site cabling in industrial environments.

What port configurations are available for METZ CONNECT steel RJ45 housings?

METZ CONNECT steel RJ45 housings are available in 2-port (MPN 130861-0202-E), 3-port (MPN 130861-0302KE), 4-port (MPN 130861-0402-E), 6-port (MPN 130861-0602KE), and 8-port (MPN 130861-0802-E) configurations. All are surface-mount, unequipped, and finished in white. This range allows you to match the housing size to the number of network drops required at a given location.
