The IE-CFK-05 provides support and relief for Ethernet cables once they are attached to industrial switches, particularly those of moving machinery and equipment that experience high vibration levels.

The product is made from glass fibre reinforced plastic and can withstand anharmonic oscillations in vibrating applications.

It is designed for use with the IES10 and IES20 series, where the device mounts directly to the DIN rail and curves to overlap the front face of Ethernet switches.

It can hold up to 10 cables simultaneously.

Weidmuller specialises in industrial connectivity, particularly electrical connectivity, transmission, signal and data.

The company has manufacturing plants, sales companies and representatives in more than 80 countries.
