FAQs

What is the main purpose of the Tripp Lite NM12-602-01M-BL cable?

The Tripp Lite NM12-602-01M-BL is a Cat6 M12 cable designed for connecting Gigabit Ethernet networks in challenging environments. It's specifically engineered for wet/humid conditions, areas with vibration, and harsh industrial settings like factories, warehouses, recycling plants, airports, and railways. The cable features an M12 X-Code connector with a 12mm locking thread, making it ideal for washdown and corrosive applications in industries such as agriculture, factory automation, and food/beverage facilities.

What is the IP68 rating on this cable, and what protection does it offer?

The IP68 rating on the M12 connector provides maximum protection against environmental factors. This rating ensures 100% protection against dust ingress and allows the connector to be immersed in water up to 1.5 meters deep for 60 minutes without any damage or performance degradation. This makes it ideal for use in wet, dusty, or harsh industrial environments where regular exposure to these elements is expected.

What are the PoE capabilities of this cable?

This Cat6 cable supports high-power 60W PoE++ (Power over Ethernet), enabling it to power various PoE-enabled devices such as surveillance cameras, VoIP telephones, and access control devices. This feature eliminates the need for separate power supplies and additional power cables, reducing installation costs and complexity. The cable is CMR-LP certified, ensuring safe operation with increased power levels without exceeding temperature ratings.

What are the connector types and length specifications?

The cable is 3.28 feet (1 meter) long and features an M12-X Network Male connector on one end and an RJ-45 Network Male connector on the other end. It's designed with a snagless boot type and uses 23 AWG copper conductors. This configuration makes it ideal for connecting industrial equipment to standard network infrastructure while maintaining Gigabit Ethernet speeds of up to 1 Gbps.

What environmental features make this cable suitable for industrial use?

The cable incorporates multiple protective features including temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, dust resistance, water resistance, moisture resistance, and vibration resistance. It features a durable PVC jacket in blue color and is specifically designed for washdown applications. The M12 connector's locking thread mechanism ensures a secure connection in high-vibration environments.
