TM31 series shielded RJ45 modular plugs from Hirose offer CAT6a performance.
To meet with the high demand for better performing high speed connectors, Hirose have introduced the TM31 series modular plug that meets with CAT6a performance and ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-B.2-10 standards.
The plug has been designed to be user friendly by having a simple and quick assembly process. This is achieved by using the wire guide plate that places the individual wires to the correct contact. The standard TM11/TM21 series hand tool is suitable for the TM31 series allowing quick and easy IDC contact termination and clamping of the cable. It is also possible to lengthen the cable jacket end during assembly without compromising the CAT6a performance.
The TM31 features a unique contact arrangement placed over two rows instead of one to give improved transmission characteristics and optimized performance.
Covers are available in different colours from the TM21P range. Stranded PIMF cable is recommended in AWG 24-27 size. The part numbers are TM31P-TM-88P(01) for the plug, TM31P-TM-88P(02) for the wire guide and HT601/TM21P-88P for the hand tool.
