GigaPLUG

GigaPLUG is a contactless plug which supports the transmission of EtherCAT and other common Ethernet-based protocols.

  • EtherCAT
  • 100Base Ethernet
  • 1000Base Ethernet
  • other Ethernet-based protocols

The technology is based on a capacitive contactless transmission, which is used for many years in a lot of rotating systems of Schleifring. The GigaPLUG instead transmit the data in a stationary system.

Due to the shock- and vibrationsresistence a reliable full-duplex transmission can be make sure even in environmentally unfriendly conditions (IP66). The contactless transmission generates a mechanical wear-free system, in which you can achieve unlimited plug-in cycles of connector operations.

  • Outer diameter: 40 mm
  • Length: 100 mm
  • Protection class: IP66
  • Max. Gap between both plugs: 4 mm
  • Interface: 100BaseT / 1000BaseT: M12
  • Bit error rate < 10^-12
