The part number **Y-CONC-R42CU-RJ6P-2000-A** typically refers to a high-performance industrial Ethernet cable assembly or a specific connector component often used in automation and factory environments. Based on the nomenclature common in industrial electronics (particularly within the Yamaichi Electronics Y-Con series), here is the technical breakdown: --- ### Technical Specifications Breakdown | Component Segment | Description | |:---|:---| | **Series Prefix (Y-CON)** | Industrial RJ45 system designed for harsh environments. | | **Connector Type (R42)** | Usually denotes a specific plug or socket orientation (often IP20 or IP67 rated). | | **Material/Plating (CU)** | Refers to Copper (Cu) base material with high-quality gold plating on contacts. | | **Configuration (RJ6P)** | 6-pin configuration (often used for power + data integration). | | **Length (2000)** | 2000mm (2 Meters) total cable length. | | **Revision (A)** | Standard version or first production revision. | --- ### Electronic Features #### 1. Integrated Power Contacts Unlike standard consumer RJ45 connectors, the **RJ6P** designation often implies that the connector features additional power contacts. This allows the cable to transmit: * **Ethernet Data:** Pins 1-4 or 1-8 for data transmission. * **Auxiliary Power:** 2 integrated power contacts capable of carrying higher current (up to 2.1A) for peripheral devices without needing a separate power cord. #### 2. Signal Integrity and Shielding * **EMI Protection:** These parts usually feature full 360° shielding to prevent electromagnetic interference in factory settings. * **Cat 5e/6 Compatibility:** Optimized for high-speed data transfer required for industrial protocols like PROFINET or EtherCAT. #### 3. Mechanical Durability * **Vibration Resistance:** Designed with locking mechanisms to prevent accidental disconnection. * **Gold Plating:** Ensures low contact resistance and prevents oxidation over time. --- ### Applications These electronic parts are primarily found in: 1. **Industrial Robotics:** Connecting controllers to sensors or motor drives. 2. **Vision Systems:** Powering high-speed cameras while transmitting image data. 3. **PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers):** Interfacing between the main rack and remote I/O modules.
