The new I/O mini-connector will be offered in a field-installable version and a high-volume version for wiring harness manufacturers. This new product further expands TE's family of industrial I/O mini-connectors that support serial, bus, and Ethernet communications up to 10 Gbps (Cat 6A), covering all possible connections in industrial environments.

Compared to existing solutions on the market, the I/O mini-connector is superior in terms of impact and vibration resistance and offers a more stable connection thanks to a robust mechanical interface and a spring-loaded design with dual contact points. Furthermore, the I/O mini-connector family features superior EMI (electromagnetic interference) shielding compared to traditional solutions such as RJ45 connectors.

The new Cat 6A I/O mini-connectors will support Ethernet connections up to 10 Gbps. Combined with TE's existing offering of PCB I/O mini-connectors (right angle, surface mount), this new product will provide industrial manufacturers with a comprehensive solution for compact 10 Gbps (Cat 6A) industrial connections.
