Network Cable Telegärtner Karl Gärtner STX M12x1-RJ45 Cat.5 1m Black

The Telegärtner STX M12x1-RJ45 Cat.5 network cable in 1 m length is built for dependable data transmission in industrial and commercial environments. It combines an M12x1 circular connector on one end with a standard RJ45 on the other, offering compatibility with equipment that requires secure, vibration-resistant connections. The Cat.5 specification supports typical Ethernet speeds and the black jacket provides a discreet, professional appearance while protecting the internal conductors from mechanical stress.

Advantages

This cable provides a robust mechanical design with an M12x1 connector that resists loosening in vibration-prone installations and an RJ45 termination for standard networking equipment. The Cat.5 performance ensures reliable signal integrity for typical Ethernet applications. Its 1 m length balances flexibility and neat cable management while the outer sheath offers protection against abrasion and handling in industrial settings.

Suitable for

• Connecting industrial devices with M12 ports to standard Ethernet switches or routers
• Factory automation and control systems
• Panel wiring and machine-to-network interfaces
• Temporary test setups and short-distance patching in control cabinets

Key specifications

• Cable standard: Category 5 (Cat.5)
• Length: 1 meter
• Connector A: M12x1 circular connector
• Connector B: RJ45 plug
• Color: Black outer jacket
• Construction: Shielded twisted pairs (as applicable for Cat.5)

How to use

Ensure both devices are powered off or follow hot-plugging guidelines of the equipment. Align the M12x1 connector with the mating receptacle and tighten according to the connector’s torque recommendations to secure the connection. Insert the RJ45 plug into the Ethernet port until it latches. Verify link status on network devices and confirm data transmission. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical strain; secure with appropriate clamps or cable ties where necessary.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines or motor power cables to reduce electromagnetic interference. Use in environments within the specified temperature and mechanical limits of connected equipment, and replace the cable if outer sheath damage or degraded connection quality is observed.
