Ethernet connectors are
sealed on the panel
Waterproof Ethernet connectors are now available for PCB mounting and IDC termination
Bulgin has expanded its successful IP68 Waterproof Ethernet Buccaneer family with two new panel-mount versions. Using standard RJ45 connectors these connectors are now available for PCB mounting and IDC termination. The PX0839/PC is designed for direct PCB mounting. The connector is rear-of-panel mounting, which in addition to providing an anchor point for the PCB, also allows assembly and, if necessary, testing before fitting to the panel.
