CAT 6 Data Wiring System Connectors
TM23 Series
NEW
2004.3
Features
1. High-Speed Data Transfer
Conforms to the TIA/EIA-568B.2-1 data Wiring standard,
thereby clears CAT 6 transfer performance requirements.
As such, these products easily support Gigabit Ethernet
(1000BASE-T/10000BASE-TX), which is the next
generation of high-speed applications.
2. A Product Lineup Focused on Building of a
Complete System
In addition to modular plugs, Hirose Electric offers box
type outlets, patch panels, and wall outlets. Systems built
using all components from the same manufacturer will
assure stable data transfer.
3. Support of a Wide Variety of Manufacturers'
CAT 6 Cable
To assure high performance of the system we test and
monitor data transfer using CAT 6 cables manufactured
by different suppliers.
(Refer to page 12 for recommended cables.)

Recommended Cable Manufacturers
Hirose Electric closely examines the transfer performance of these connectors with the CAT 6 cable that is
manufactured and sold by the various cable manufacturers. Please use the cable from among those indicated in
Table 1 for system construction with the TM23 Series.
Use of Different Manufacturers' Components
Use of different manufacturers' components in one system could cause the deterioration of transfer performance.
Check of the System Performance Verification
All measures have been taken to assure the transfer performance of the TM23 series. However, it is highly
recommended to verify transfer performance of complete system using commercially available measuring
instruments.
Hirose Electric does not build wiring systems. Please contact Hirose Electric sales representative for system
construction contractor information.
Note: Please see the web sites of the various manufacturers for cable specifications.
Contact HRS for recommendations when using cables from other suppliers.
