In the fields of industrial automation, building networks, and data centers, the performance stability of connectors is crucial for system reliability. The German brand Metz Connect is renowned in this aspect, and its strict testing and quality management experience provides important reference and benchmark for domestic substitution.

Part 1: Performance Standards and Testing Methods of Metz Connect● High-performance RJ45 connector performance
Metz Connect's RJ45 plug Pro type supports Cat.8.1 level (up to 2000 MHz maximum frequency), used for 40GBASE-T high-speed transmission, featuring shielding design, multi-port support, durable for plugging and unplugging, and compatible with various PoE standards.
Field assembly flexibility and process simplification
The product can be installed without special tools, facilitating rapid on-site deployment while ensuring reliability.
●Industrial-grade tolerance
The M12 to RJ45 adaptors used in public transportation communication network scenarios have undergone comprehensive tests including mechanical vibration, protection grade (IP), and fire safety to ensure stable transmission under harsh conditions.
System-level Test Laboratory Support
Metz Connect has established its own testing laboratory, conducting a series of verifications including high-frequency performance, vibration and shock, and climate aging, to support transmission standards such as Cat.5e / Cat.6A.

Secondly, suggestions for performance testing architecture of domestic substitution products.We propose a suggestion for a testing system to evaluate the performance of domestic connectors.
Transmission performance test
Conduct frequency response, return loss, and crosstalk performance tests for Cat.6A or Cat.8 cables to verify data rate and quality.
2. Insertion and Extraction Life and Mechanical Reliability
Set up hundreds to thousands of insertion and extraction cycle tests to evaluate the change in contact resistance and structural durability.
Environmental tolerance test
Simulate hot, humid, vibration, high/low temperature environments, and use laboratory facilities to verify the long-term reliability of components.
4. On-site Adaptation and Tool Compatibility
Test the simplicity of on-site assembly and the compatibility of modular interface, ensuring the deployment efficiency and ease of maintenance.
5. System-level Comprehensive Test Comparison
Recommend a comparative test with Metz Connect samples (such as IP protection, transmission stability) to vouch for the performance of domestic alternatives.

Domestic connectors must be persuasive on test data to become a reliable alternative. Establishing a comprehensive testing process, from high-frequency transmission capabilities, durable structural design to environmental adaptability, is the key to matching and even surpassing the trust in international brands. By referring to Metz Connect's practices in performance verification and testing facilities, domestic products can have greater market competitiveness.
