IEC 63171-2-2021 pdf Connectors for electrical and electronic equipment – Part 2: Detail specification for 2-way, shielded or unshielded, free and fixed connectors: mechanical mating information, pin assignment and additional requirements for type 2

This part of IEC 63171 covers 2-way, shielded or unshielded, free and fixed connectors for data transmission up to 600 MHz, with current-carrying capacity, known as Type 2. It specifies the common dimensions, mechanical, electrical and transmission characteristics and environmental requirements as well as test specifications respectively. The form factor of these connectors allows their use for cable sharing with already installed TO’s for structured cabling. NOTE The overall performance of the transmission channel in such case has to be evaluated. Intermateable and interoperable versions for circular connector for sealed applications including this connector are described in IEC 63171-5. The shielded and unshielded connectors are interoperable for their internal transmission performance and can be exchanged. The shielded version has improved alien crosstalk and coupling attenuation properties. 2 Normative references The following documents are referred to in the text in such a way that some or all of their content constitutes requirements of this document.

4 Common features and typical connector pair Mating information 4.1 4.1.1 General Dimensions are given in millimetres. Drawings are shown in first angle projection. The shape of connectors may deviate from those given in Figure 2 to Figure 5, as long as the dimensions specified are not changed, see also Table 1 and Table 2. NOTE When using the snap-in version of the free connector, the mating face of the free connector can also be used as mating face of a fixed connector and the mating face of the fixed connector can be used as mating face of a free connector.
