Why Choose the Ilme CJK 8B IFT RJ45 Female Connector?
The Ilme CJK 8B IFT is a female RJ45 Cat. 6A IDC connector insert designed for Ilme CJK adapter systems and industrial Ethernet applications. Using the compact size 21.21 format, it provides an integrated RJ45 interface for machinery, automation equipment and control systems where dependable high-speed data connectivity is required.
The connector uses IDC termination with contact coding according to T568B, allowing installation cable conductors to be terminated directly without fitting a conventional RJ45 plug to the field-wiring side. Its Cat. 6A performance makes it suitable for high-speed Ethernet networks, including applications requiring 10 Gigabit Ethernet capability.
Designed specifically for industrial environments, the CJK 8B IFT has a rated current of 1 A, an operating temperature range of -40 °C to +70 °C and a mechanical life of at least 500 mating cycles. The RJ45 interface also supports Power over Ethernet according to IEEE 802.3af, making it a versatile choice for networked industrial equipment.

Reliable Industrial Ethernet Connectivity with T568B IDC Termination
The Ilme CJK 8B IFT provides a practical way to integrate standard RJ45 Ethernet connectivity into heavy-duty industrial connector systems. The female RJ45 interface accepts compatible Ethernet connections at the equipment side, while the rear IDC termination allows the individual conductors of an installation cable to be terminated according to the T568B wiring scheme. This arrangement supports clean, repeatable network installations without requiring a conventional field-terminated RJ45 plug behind the connector.
With Cat. 6A performance, 10 Gigabit Ethernet compatibility and a nickel-plated zinc die-cast shielding housing, the CJK 8B IFT is designed for demanding industrial data applications. When installed in an appropriate Ilme enclosure system, it provides a robust interface between industrial Ethernet cabling and networked machinery, controllers, drives and automation equipment.
