The **Y-CONC-R406M-RJCU-2000-A** is a specific industrial-grade cable assembly, typically associated with high-performance networking or sensor interface applications in automation environments. It is part of the Y-Con series manufactured by **Yamaichi Electronics**. --- ### 1. Component Specifications The part number can be broken down into its technical characteristics: | Feature | Specification | Description | |:---|:---|:---| | **Series** | Y-Con | Yamaichi's industrial RJ45 connector system. | | **Connector Type** | RJ45 | Standard 8P8C interface with industrial shielding. | | **Cable Length** | 2000 mm | The assembly is 2 meters long. | | **Protection Class** | IP20 / IP67 | Dependent on the housing; designed for vibration and EMI resistance. | | **Category** | Cat 5e / Cat 6 | Supports high-speed data transmission up to 1 Gbps. | --- ### 2. Key Electronic Features #### A. High-Integrity Shielding The cable and connectors are designed with **360° shielding**. This is critical in industrial environments to prevent Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) from high-voltage machinery or variable frequency drives (VFDs) from corrupting data packets. #### B. Gold-Plated Contacts To ensure long-term reliability and low contact resistance, the RJ45 pins are typically plated with **50µ" of gold**. This prevents oxidation in humid or chemically active environments. #### C. Integrated Power (Optional Feature) The Y-Con system is unique because it often includes **additional power contacts**. Unlike standard PoE (Power over Ethernet), the Y-Con design can integrate two extra power lines (up to 2.1A) alongside the data lines within the same RJ45 footprint. --- ### 3. Physical Construction * **Jacket Material:** Usually PUR (Polyurethane) or PVC, providing resistance to oils, chemicals, and abrasion. * **Strain Relief:** Molded boot design to prevent wire breakage at the connector junction during frequent bending. * **Locking Mechanism:** Features a robust latching system to ensure the connection remains secure even under heavy vibration. --- ### 4. Typical Applications * **Industrial Ethernet:** Connecting PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers) to HMIs. * **Vision Systems:** High-speed data transfer for industrial cameras. * **Robotics:** Durable cabling for robotic arms requiring flexible but shielded data lines.
