Why Choose the ILME CJK 8P IFT RJ45 IDC PROFINET Insert?

The ILME CJK 8P IFT is a compact RJ45 female IDC connector insert designed for industrial Ethernet and PROFINET installations. Part of the ILME CJK adapter series, it combines a Cat. 6A RJ45 interface with IDC conductor termination in the compact size 21.21 format.

The CJK 8P IFT features PROFINET contact coding and provides a female RJ45 interface for industrial data networks. Its IDC termination allows conductors to be connected directly without conventional crimp contacts, supporting solid conductors from 0.4–0.64 mm and stranded conductors from 0.48–0.76 mm.

Rated at 1 A and 50 V according to EN 61984, the CJK 8P IFT supports Cat. 6A Ethernet connectivity and is suitable for Power over Ethernet according to IEEE 802.3af. With shielding, a mechanical life of at least 500 mating cycles and an operating temperature range of -40 °C to +70 °C, it provides a dependable data connection for industrial machinery and automation systems.

Reliable PROFINET Connectivity for Industrial Ethernet

PROFINET is widely used to exchange data between controllers, drives, remote I/O, machinery and other automation equipment. The ILME CJK 8P IFT provides a compact industrial RJ45 interface with PROFINET-specific contact coding, allowing Ethernet connectivity to be incorporated into compatible ILME connector enclosure systems.

IDC technology allows compatible conductors to be terminated directly at the connector, helping simplify field assembly while avoiding separate crimp contacts. The shielded Cat. 6A construction supports demanding industrial Ethernet installations where reliable high-speed communication and protection against electromagnetic interference are important.

Typical Applications

  • PROFINET industrial communication networks.
  • Industrial Ethernet connector systems.
  • PLC, remote I/O and automation equipment.
  • Industrial machinery communication interfaces.
  • Robotics and automated production systems.
  • Drives, controllers and machine networking equipment.
