Why Choose the ILME CX08I6F Female MIXO Gigabit Modular Insert?
The ILME CX08I6F is a fully shielded 8-pole female modular insert with crimp connections, designed for high-speed industrial Ethernet and data transmission within the ILME MIXO modular connector system. As part of the advanced ILME MIXO Gigabit series, it provides a compact and robust interface for transmitting Ethernet signals through heavy-duty industrial connector assemblies.
Designed for Gigabit Ethernet Cat. 6A, Class EA applications, the CX08I6F supports frequencies up to 500 MHz and data transmission rates up to 10 Gbit/s. Its zinc-alloy shield helps protect sensitive data signals against electromagnetic interference, making the insert particularly suitable for machinery and automation environments containing motors, drives and switching equipment.
The CX08I6F provides 8 poles plus a shield connection in a single MIXO module and is rated at 5 A and 50 V. Compatible gold-plated female crimp contacts are ordered separately and support conductor cross-sections from 0.08–0.52 mm², allowing the insert to provide a reliable and serviceable high-speed communication interface for industrial Ethernet networks.
