Crush-resistant cable assemblies for harsh environments in military applications introduced by MilesTek

LEWISVILLE, Texas – MilesTek, an Infinite Electronics company in Lewisville, Texas, is introducing rugged Cat6-rated IP68 cable assemblies with metal connectors for military, industrial, government, and broadcast applications.

The cable assemblies come in various lengths and connector options, and feature SF/UTP cable with 24-gauge wire that is double-shielded with foil and braid. This prevents crosstalk and provides EMI/RFI protection and grounding.

The FR-TPE jacket will survive harsh environments that involve rain, UV rays, oil, chemicals, and weld spatter. The cables come with UL CMX flame rating, and is high-flex rated with a continuous-motion capability of to 10 million cycles.

The metal connectors are crush-resistant, IP68-rated, waterproof, and dust-tight; the jack versions are sealed even without a dust cap. Their electroless nickel plating is RoHS compliant.

Available configurations include plug to plug, jack to jack, plug to jack, plug to standard RJ45, and jack to standard RJ45. For more information contact MilesTek online at www.milestek.com.
