Octax® High Speed Data Assemblies

Amphenol CIT offers 35 years of custom cable assembly experience. We offer engineering support for build-to-print or design capabilities for a complete solution. Our Octax High-Speed Cable Assemblies are available in both plug and socket versions and capable of being utilized in a panel mount application. The connector weighs approximately 40% less than those of its competitors and uses standard M39029 contacts. These Octax cables house four Ethernet pairs in separate low profile cells within a small envelope housing. These Octax high-speed cables are optimized for use with Amphenol CIT's Gigabit Series Cables. Other characteristics include:

• Discrete copper assemblies - Ranging from single end terminated to multi-breakout harnesses
• Rack and panel assemblies with fully automated wire harness testing
• Box build capability including complete turnkey electromechanical solution
