Turck U2-18467 RJ45 Ethernet Field-Wireable Connector

The Turck RJ45S 84 IDC Ethernet Field-Wireable Connector (Alternate Part Number U2-18467) is a straight 8-pin RJ45 male Ethernet connector with insulation-displacement termination designed for field installation in industrial networks. It is commonly used to terminate Ethernet cables in PLC networks, industrial Ethernet switches, control panels, industrial PCs, and other factory automation equipment that require CAT5 and CAT6A connectivity. The connector features gold-plated copper-beryllium contacts and a die-cast zinc housing, supports 5–9 mm cable diameters, and accepts 24–22 AWG conductors. Electrical ratings include a 42 V maximum voltage and 1 A current rating, with IP20 protection when plugged in. It is rated for more than 750 mating cycles and operates over a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, making it suitable for environments with wide temperature variation and frequent connectivity changes. As a field-wireable solution from Turck, it supports replacement, retrofit, network expansion, and straightforward industrial Ethernet wiring projects.
