Proven solutions for industrial applications and harsh environments

Requirements of communication networks in industrial applications and harsh environments.

Ethernet left the office building long ago and is successfully used in applications that have higher demands on the products in a transmission channel due to the operating environment. The customer’s expectation is that the stability of the channel is as reliable as in an office building. Basically, there are four groups of influences that affect the communication link.

 

Mechanical stress
High force, pressure and vibration cause deformation or damage to equipment or structures.
Dust
Fine particles interfere with electronic components and cause wear and tear.
Temperature fluctuations
Rapid changes in temperature lead to expansion, contraction, and thermal stress on materials.
Water and humidity
The presence of moisture corrode metal, damages electronic circuits, and degrades the performance of equipment.

R&M Splash and IDC products for all kinds of industries

 

  1. Manufacturing, Food & Beverage, Robotics
    Built to last in harsh environments. Installation is ‘first time right’ and durable operation is guaranteed in every sector of manufacturing.
  2. Energy & Wind Power Parks
    Well-suited for use in the wind, oil, and gas industry, where equipment is exposed to weather, dust, water and other liquids and downtime should be avoided at all costs. Our cables are designed to be resistant to contamination from hydrocarbons and other chemicals such as acids, fire-resistant and low smoke. We can help you find the best solution for your specific application and ensure you get the most out of your equipment.
  3. Transportation, Traffic Management, Shipbuilding
    Easy to roll out and designed to be durable, future-proof, flexible, and impact-resistant, making them ideal for transportation applications. We can provide complete solutions for railways, airports and other types of transport setting that integrate with any platform and system. R&M also has an outstanding track record in the areas of safety, reliability, and ensuring support for today’s and tomorrow’s applications.
  4. Logistic Buildings
    Well-suited for use in construction settings, where equipment may be exposed to the elements and planning and cost are key. Today’s standards and requirements, such as PoE, are factored into product designs from the outset, ensuring speed and compliance in a highly regulated industry. The R&M range includes a wide range of pre-assembled and field-assembled platform products and cabling is delivered on time, on budget, and precisely according to specifications.
  5. Healthcare
    Designed to be easy to clean, durable, and interference-proof and therefore ideally suited to use in healthcare settings. Wherever performance and hygiene are critical, as well as the ability to work with highly sensitive equipment and comply with the highest standards, R&M offers proven solutions. These are based on best practices and deep knowledge of medical systems and standards.
  6. Mining
    Designed to be stable, easy to use, rugged and durable in even the harshest conditions, making them a good choice for use in mining applications. In mining environments, equipment is exposed to polluting substances, humidity, and elevated temperatures. R&M offers standards-compliant solutions that guarantee performance, cost-efficiency, and – vitally – safety.

Products designed to last in harsh environments and industrial applications

Based on decades of materials know-how and experience with real-world application, R&M’s products are designed to withstand even the harshest industrial environments and incorporate high mechanical resilience and reliability.

Ideal for settings in which machinery and other equipment may produce dust, debris, or moisture. R&M solutions are oil-repellent and resistant to high temperatures. They’re weather and moisture-resistant, making them a good choice for use in many industries.

We consider higher requirements or additional services, such as PoE, from the outset in the conception of our product designs and develop the technologies that our products require for this in-house. Installation is ‘first time right’ and durable operation is guaranteed in every sector of manufacturing.

Proven installation concepts
The reliability of a network is defined not only by the quality of the network components alone but by the quality of the installation as well. R&M products are easy to install, are continuously improved, manufactured in-house, ensuring complete and timely deliveries. We advise on the best solutions and create new product variants wherever necessary. The R&M range includes a wide range of pre-assembled and field-assembled products. These range from interconnect cables to field-mountable connectors for RJ45 and FO.
Best network availability
R&M listens to customer feedback and incorporates it into the improvement of its products. Our regular QPP (Qualified Partner Program) with planners and installers also serves to transfer know-how from R&M to the customer and back. The ‘R&M triumvirate’ of product robustness, installation intelligence and know-how transfer produce the best network availability (of installed data networks) in the market. This also applies to demanding operating environments and harsh influences. We stand for this with a 25-year system guarantee.

Going beyond standards
R&M standard products prove themselves in an excellent manner outside of the protected operating environment in office buildings for the reasons mentioned. However, special requirements in individual applications can go beyond the standard range. R&M closes these gaps with specially designed products, which we develop in partnership with our suppliers. One of R&M’s outstanding strengths is its willingness to offer customers specific configured products.
