R&M introduces FM45, first tool-free wireable, field terminable, 8-wire RJ45 connector

Industry capable IDC technology guarantees error-free, vibration- and corrosion resistant wiring

A typical innovation from R&M, the number 1 for layer 1


BANGALORE / MUMBAI / NEW DELHI, India – February 17, 2010 – Swiss cabling specialist Reichle & De-Massari (R&M) has introduced FM45 connector in India. FM45, the Cat 5e connector – the original product on the field assembly market – can be connected in just a few steps. FM45 is the first tool-free wireable, field terminable, 8-wire RJ45 connector, which makes transmission capacity up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet.

FM45 can be used for flexible, quick cabling of large enterprises, industrial plants, offices and residential buildings. With the FM45 you can terminate RJ45 / Cat. 5e connections intuitively in no time at all and with just one click – regardless of where you are and without special tools. The insulation displacement contact from R&M ensures safe, error-free and durable wiring of the eight wires. The FM45 renders installations more efficient since time is saved in planning and work preparation, and cable overlengths are eliminated. Due to its extremely compact shape, it can be lined up horizontally as well as vertically. Thus, the FM45 can be plugged-in to all common terminal equipment with RJ45 connections without constraints.

In office cabling, it can be advantageous if the connector can be connected later once the cable has been pulled through tight areas, such as a piece of furniture or a pillar. The FM45 is the ideal problem solver in many cases.

The FM45 meets Ethernet requirements in the area of automation (IEC 61918 Draft) as well as in the industrial LAN (ISO/IEC 24702 or EN 50173-3 Draft) and in structured building cabling (ISO/IEC 11801 or EN 50173-1). In the FM45, solid or stranded wires can be wired with cross sections of AWG 26 to AWG 22. It accommodates shielded and unshielded cables up to 8 mm diameter and can be rewired up to twenty times. The FM45 in the basic version meets the requirements of the IP20 protection index and in the encapsulated version the requirements of the IP67 protection index.
