METZ CONNECT IP44SG

METZ CONNECT is a German manufacturer of electrical connection and network infrastructure components, headquartered in Blumberg. The company's product range includes PCB terminal blocks, connectors, cable assemblies, and network cabling systems for industrial, building, and data center applications. The IP44SG series is part of METZ CONNECT's voice and data housing portfolio, designed to provide protected connectivity in environments where dust and water ingress are concerns. These housings are rated IP44, meaning they are protected against solid objects larger than 1 mm and against water splashing from any direction. This makes them suitable for installation in industrial settings, utility areas, and commercial spaces where exposure to moisture or particulates is possible. The IP44SG family includes flush-mount and surface-mount wall outlets, available in gray or white, with options for different module types. The outlets are typically supplied unequipped, allowing the installer to select the appropriate Cat6A module for the specific network requirement. Connection types include E-DAT Module Cat6A (T568B) and Cat6A Module with 180° mounting angle. These housings are part of a structured cabling system that supports voice and data transmission up to 10 Gbps over copper cabling, depending on the module and installation. The IP44SG series is designed for use with METZ CONNECT's E-DAT and Cat6A modules, which are available separately. 3G Electric supplies the METZ CONNECT IP44SG line as part of its industrial equipment catalog. The product range includes flush-mount and surface-mount housings, in gray and white, with two ports and unequipped configurations. 3G Electric provides global shipping and technical support for these products, serving plant engineers, maintenance managers, and procurement specialists who require reliable network infrastructure components for industrial and commercial installations. The IP44SG series is one of several METZ CONNECT product families available through 3G Electric, alongside other connection and cabling solutions. For specific part numbers, such as 1309461003-I, 1309461002-I, and 1309460003-I, 3G Electric maintains inventory and can provide datasheets and compliance documentation upon request. The IP44SG housings are compatible with standard mounting hardware and accept modules that meet the respective connection specifications. Installation requires a suitable back box or surface-mount base, depending on the model. The IP44 rating is maintained only when the housing is properly installed with the appropriate module and sealing components. 3G Electric can assist with selecting the correct housing and module combination for a given application, ensuring that the IP44 protection and network performance requirements are met. The IP44SG series is manufactured to meet relevant industry standards for network cabling components, including ISO/IEC 11801 and EN 50173 for structured cabling, and the IP44 rating is verified according to IEC 60529.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about METZ CONNECT IP44SG from 3G Electric.

What is the IP rating of METZ CONNECT IP44SG housings?

The METZ CONNECT IP44SG series is rated IP44 according to IEC 60529. This means the housings are protected against solid foreign objects of 1 mm diameter and greater, and against water splashing from any direction. The IP44 rating is maintained only when the housing is properly installed with a compatible module and all sealing components are in place. It is important to follow the manufacturer's installation instructions to ensure the integrity of the protection. These housings are suitable for indoor use in areas where dust and occasional splashing may occur, such as industrial floors, utility rooms, or commercial kitchens. They are not intended for immersion or high-pressure washing.

What types of modules are compatible with METZ CONNECT IP44SG wall outlets?

METZ CONNECT IP44SG wall outlets accept E-DAT Module Cat6A (T568B) and Cat6A Module with 180° mounting angle. The specific compatibility depends on the model. For example, SKU 802L46 accepts E-DAT Module Cat6A (T568B), while SKU 802L45 and SKU 802L43 accept Cat6A modules with 180° connection type. These modules are not included with the housings and must be ordered separately. It is essential to use the correct module type to ensure proper fit and network performance. The modules are designed to meet Cat6A specifications for data transmission up to 10 Gbps. Always verify the module part number against the housing specifications before installation.

Are METZ CONNECT IP44SG housings available in different colors?

Yes, METZ CONNECT IP44SG housings are available in gray and white. For instance, SKU 802L46 and SKU 802L43 have gray connector color, while SKU 802L45 has white connector color. The color refers to the housing or connector component, and it is a cosmetic attribute that does not affect performance. When ordering, specify the desired color to match the installation environment. 3G Electric stocks both color options and can provide availability information upon request. The color designation is part of the manufacturer part number, so ensure the correct variant is selected for your project.

What is the difference between flush-mount and surface-mount METZ CONNECT IP44SG outlets?

Flush-mount (UP) METZ CONNECT IP44SG outlets are designed to be installed into a wall cavity, with the housing sitting flush with the wall surface. Surface-mount outlets are mounted directly onto the wall surface, often using a back box or base. Flush-mount models include SKU 802L46 and SKU 802L45, while SKU 802L43 is a surface-mount model. The choice depends on the installation requirements: flush-mount provides a clean, integrated look, while surface-mount is easier to install in existing walls without significant modification. Both types offer the same IP44 protection when installed correctly. Consider cable routing and available space when selecting the mounting type.

Do METZ CONNECT IP44SG housings come with connectors included?

No, METZ CONNECT IP44SG housings are supplied unequipped, meaning the connectors or modules are not included. This allows the installer to choose the appropriate module for the specific network requirement, such as Cat6A for high-speed data. The housings have two ports and accept compatible modules that must be ordered separately. For example, SKU 802L46 requires an E-DAT Module Cat6A (T568B), while SKU 802L45 and SKU 802L43 require Cat6A modules with 180° connection type. This modular approach provides flexibility and can reduce inventory costs. Ensure that the selected module meets the desired performance category and is compatible with the housing.

What are the typical applications for METZ CONNECT IP44SG wall outlets?

METZ CONNECT IP44SG wall outlets are used in structured cabling installations where protection against dust and water splashes is needed. Typical applications include industrial manufacturing areas, warehouses, commercial buildings, and utility rooms. They support voice and data transmission for Ethernet networks, including PoE applications. The IP44 rating makes them suitable for environments that are not fully clean but do not require full waterproofing. They can be used in conjunction with Cat6A cabling to support bandwidth-intensive applications. These outlets are part of a complete cabling system and should be installed by qualified personnel following relevant standards such as ISO/IEC 11801.
