CHARLOTTE, N.C.—With the new NE8FFX6-W, Neutrik USA has introduced a new feedthrough coupler that works with both etherCON Cat 5 and etherCON Cat 6A cable carriers, as well as standard RJ45 plugs.

The NE8FFX6-W features 10-Gbit bandwidth along with IP65 ingress protection when mated to cables with Neutrik’s NE8MX6 family of etherCON Cat 6A connectors. It also features a unique barrel design different than its cousin, the NE8FF.

Charlotte, NC – June 2015… Neutrik USA, the leading supplier of robust and reliable professional connectivity solutions for audio, video, and data, announces its right-angle etherCON Cat 5e feedthrough connectors. A new alternative to Neutrik’s existing NE8FDP* feedthrough connectors, which are terminated via an RJ45 connector plugged in straight from the rear, the new NE8FDP-R* right-angle feedthrough connectors accept an RJ45 connector at the bottom rear. This right-angle orientation can be a space saver in cases where space behind the connector is limited. Neutrik’s new right-angle feedthrough connectors are available with either a nickel flange (part number NE8FDP-R) or a black flange (part number NE8FDP-R-B).
