FAQs

What is the main purpose of the Tripp Lite NM12-601-02M-BL cable?

The Tripp Lite NM12-601-02M-BL is a Cat6 M12 X-Code cable designed to connect Gigabit Ethernet networks in harsh industrial environments. It's specifically built for wet/humid environments and areas subject to vibration, such as factories, warehouses, recycling plants, airports, railways, and machine shops. The cable supports 1 Gbps data transfer rates and is ideal for industrial networking applications requiring robust, reliable connectivity.

What protection rating does this cable have and what does it mean?

This cable has an IP68 rating, which provides the highest level of protection against environmental factors. This means it's 100% protected against dust ingress and can withstand immersion in water up to 1.5 meters deep for 60 minutes without any damage or performance degradation. This makes it ideal for washdown environments and locations where exposure to water and dust is common.

What are the PoE capabilities of this cable?

The cable supports high-power 60W PoE++ (Power over Ethernet), allowing it to power various PoE-enabled devices such as surveillance cameras, VoIP telephones, and access control devices. This capability eliminates the need for separate power supplies and additional power cables, making installation more cost-effective and flexible, especially in locations far from AC outlets.

What is the length and connector type of this cable?

The cable is 2 meters (6.56 feet) long and features M12 X-Code connectors on both ends (Male to Male). The M12 connectors have a 12-millimeter locking thread designed specifically for industrial applications, providing secure connections in environments with vibration and movement.

What environmental conditions is this cable designed to withstand?

This cable is designed to withstand multiple harsh environmental conditions, including moisture, vibration, dust, water, heat, and corrosion. It's temperature resistant, corrosion resistant, and features a durable construction that makes it suitable for industrial environments like factories, warehouses, and outdoor installations where standard cables might fail.
