R&M offers Cabling Solutions for Maritime & Offshore use

R&M has introduced cabling solutions for maritime& offshore applications. The Network connectors along with field-terminable FM45, copper and fiber optic networks from R&M have been enabled for fast and quick-assembly technology that is user-friendly. R&M's modular platforms have made it easy to upgrade effortlessly from copper to fiber optic cabling. This change allows the ship's network to transport greater data quantities faster or to integrate demanding new applications.

Gaurav Ahluwalia, Managing Director, R&M India said, "Maritime can progress technically, organizationally and economically by introducing Ethernet-IP Networks on their ships. R&M's modular platform enables an effortless upgrade from copper to fiber optic cabling. This change allows the network to transport greater data quantities faster or to integrate new applications."

These solutions include the Cat. 5e and Cat. 6 R&M connector systems featuring copper wires terminated with corrosion and vibration-proof insulation displacement contacts (IDCs), in particular, ensuring lasting & reliable operation and high availability of the network even under the stressful mechanical, climatic, chemical and electromechanical conditions found on ships.

Modules with IDC wiring are also stable in terms of transmission, so there is no change in characteristic values.
