HARTING PreLink Connection Technology Now Available in Han 3A Housing

HARTING’s preLink® end-to-end Ethernet connection technology is now also available in the form of an RJ45 connector face in a robust Han® 3A connector housing.

preLink® offers a fast and easy way to set up enterprise-wide networks that extend all the way from IT through to the manufacturing level. With the preLink® concept, HARTING has succeeded in separating the previously fixed connection of cables and connectors into two independent, reusable components: the preLink® termination block and the interchangeable sockets and connectors.

The preLink® termination block incorporates a holder for 4- or 8-wire Ethernet cable, which can be assembled with 100% certainty in a single step using the dedicated preLink® assembly tool. This termination block fits into a variety of RJ45 or M12 sockets and connectors.

The advantage of this system is that the termination block can be removed in seconds and placed on a different connector. As a result, cables and connectors can be swapped independently of one another.

When the termination block is placed in the familiar Han® 3 A housing, the result is a fully industrial-strength interface between machinery and equipment and the Ethernet network.
