OVERVIEW
Signamax category 6 industrial-grade patch cords provide the same high-level transmission performance as other Signamax cords in-tended for regular commercial applications, but with a robustness capable to withstand harsh environments typical to factory floors, chemical, food processing plants, etc. Unique IP67-rated plug housing design guarantees superb protection against liquid and solid agents’ penetration, against vibrations, and for a long-life reliable performance.
Cords are furnished with dust caps on the protected ends to prevent exposure of unplugged connectors.
