The AmphenolAlden Products Company
Industrial Ethernet Family of Products
Ethernet Migrates Out of the
Office Environment to the
Factory Floor and Beyond
From the factory automation
floor to the commercial airplane
floor, Ethernet is the network
communication protocol of
choice. Ethernet is the most
widely accepted international
networking standard used
today for its high speed, relia-
bility, wide spread acceptance
and cost. More and more
Ethernet finds
protection to secure critical
data transmition and collection
from exposure to dust, noise,
vibration, temperature
extremes, chemical exposure,
weather, debris, wash-downs
and moisture.
The Amphenol Alden Products
Company offers a wide variety
of harsh environment physical
layer solutions for the varied
challenging Ethernet applica-
tions utilizing off the shelf com-
ponents to maintain the cost
effecticiency of the Ethernet
protocol. The Pulse-Plus,
D-coded M12 quick
in these environments are
grossly obsolete. Threaded or
bayonet type couplers do not
provide visual and audible con-
firmation for positive mating
inherent in the Pulse-Lok coupler.
In these pages you will find a
broad offering of
Harsh
applications
into non-office,
harsh environments.
Currently most global Fieldbus
Networks have incorporated an
Ethernet protocol into their com-
munication topology. This
Ethernet layer is a compliment
to the existing network. The
addition of Ethernet ports on
Factory Automation devices
such as PLC’s, I/O’s, HMI’s,
Switches, Hubs, Routers,
Machine Controllers, etc.,
demand rugged interconnect
solutions.
Harsh Environment Ethernet
leverages existing Ethernet
data communication standards
while providing the required
mechanical and environmental
couple system,
and the Pulse-Net, RJ45 IP65 &
IP67 based system, protect criti-
cal data communication against
temperature and moisture
extremes, dust, vibration, EMI
noise and chemical exposure.
Both product families incorpo-
rate the Pulse-Lok quick couple
technology, a unique auto-latch
coupler that makes mating as
easy as push and click. Other
lack luster connector latching
mechanisms used extensively

Connectors with Limited
Space Requirements
Eliminate Threading
in a Snap
Time is money. Whether you
are changing over your line,
performing routine mainte-
nance, or installing thousands
of Ethernet connections, untold
hours and dollars are lost daily
due to the inefficient, time con-
suming and frustrating design
of threaded connectors. Our
Pulse-Plus product family offers
an automatic, thread less alter-
native to the traditional thread-
ed M12 connector, while main-
taining backwards compatibility.
