The Telegärtner MPD6-HS K Cat.6A is a compact, shielded mini-distributor for installation in small networks. It serves as a surface-mounted distributor for connecting network cables and end devices and is suitable for mounting on walls, under desks, in furniture, or on TH35 support rails in accordance with DIN EN 60715. The housing made of halogen-free thermoplastic is light grey (RAL 7035) and features anti-slip feet to ensure secure placement on flat surfaces. The design complies with Category 6A according to ISO/IEC 11801 and enables data transfer rates up to 10 Gbit/s. The RJ45 sockets are designed for at least 750 insertion cycles and support applications such as PoE+ according to IEEE 802.3at.
Applications
This distributor is designed for decentralized, unobtrusive installations in offices, workstations, or small networks. It is particularly suitable for environments where a 48,3 cm ( 19 inch ) rack or large wall-mounted distributor is not required. The flexible mounting options on walls, desks, in furniture, or on TH35 support rails allow adaptable integration into existing infrastructures. Multiple distributors can be combined vertically or horizontally, with mounting brackets provided for this purpose.
Functions and Equipment in Detail
The RJ45 sockets are equipped with a contact bending protection, enabling the use of 6-pin (RJ11/RJ12) and 8-pin (RJ45) plugs without additional mounting effort. Connection wires can be terminated with a maximum length of 13 mm, and LSA Plus stripping terminals with color coding according to EIA/TIA 568A and B ensure correct wire assignment. Port numbering on the housing cover facilitates clear identification and overview of connections.
Technology Explained Simply
The shielded design provides 360-degree shielding contact directly on the circuit board via a clamp, allowing the cable's shielding braid to be connected without additional twisting. This ensures effective protection against electromagnetic interference. An internal metal shielding housing additionally protects the circuit board. A PE cable can be secured to the circuit board using an M4 screw to ensure grounding. The optimized contact design prevents arcing in the contact rest area, increasing service life and reliability.
Compatibility and Accessories
The distributor is designed for shielded installation cables and supports connection options according to EIA/TIA 568A and B. Cables can be introduced from the rear or from below into the housing. The housing covers feature at least 4 cable openings to enable flexible cable routing.
Mounting and Installation
Mounting is possible on walls, desks, in furniture, or on TH35 support rails. Integrated mounting adapters allow attachment to support rails without additional tools. The horizontal mounting of the circuit board and clear marking of connections simplify installation. The included mounting brackets support the combination of multiple distributors.
Operational Advantages
The distributor provides a reliable and high-performance connection for small networks. The high insertion cycle durability and PoE+ support enable flexible use in various application scenarios. The shielded design ensures stable signal transmission, even in sensitive environments. Simple mounting and decentralized placement make it a cost-effective solution for small networks.
