Connectors for electrical and electronic equipment - Part 7: Detail specification for up to 7 ways including PE or FE (data/power) and shield pin, free and fixed circular connectors for balanced single-pair data transmission with current-carrying capacity - Mechanical mating information, pin assignment and additional requirements for type 7
Abstract
This part of IEC 63171 covers shielded free and fixed connectors with 2 ways up to 7 ways for data and power transmission and specifies the common dimensions, mechanical, electrical and transmission characteristics and environmental requirements as well as test specifications respectively. The connectors described in this document are either equipped with an M8 or M12 screw-locking mechanism or a quick-locking push-pull mechanism with a size derived from that both mechanisms combined. Additionally, connectors with rectangular housings are equipped with a snap latch retention mechanism. For the sake of simplicity, the connectors´ sizes are denoted as "size 8" "size 12" and "size R" in this document. This document provides multiple mating interfaces each of which is associated with a coding preventing the mating of incompatible male and female connectors. These codings are referred to as "Type x" where ‘x´ is represented by a Roman number.
