Maximum Cable Combination with Wincomm New Cable Gland
for External I.O. Flexible Design 

Hsinchu, Taiwan – 6th May, 2020, Wincomm, a leading medical and industrial computer provider, launched new cable gland for external I.O. design to maximum versatile I.O. combination to support water proof applications up to IP66/IP69K. Facing on rapid changed industrial environments and various applications, Wincomm provided customization service to suit for different requirements, moreover, now it is innovated new cable gland for external I.O. to shorten customization time and cut down cost fee to benefit directly to most versatile applications.

Typically, most industrial grade panel PC enclosure systems are fitted with cable entry glands that will maintain a seal, while providing a clean, safe entry point for cabling to reach computer equipment. At full sealed applications, Wincomm design full IP series which designed with stainless steel housing and M12 metal connectors with fixed I.O. combination to extend external I.O. by M12 connectors. Accompanying with customization requirement growth to fit in different applications, it is innovated cable gland with various cable grommets available to suit specific enclosure applications with minimum time to market and thus make it a cost effective solution to users.

How to Run Various I.O. Cables Options with Cable Gland Design
Under IIoT trend, industries are required more different peripherals to link to machine control computer, however, a rugged panel PC with a water proof, dust proof full sealed enclosure, would increase the customization time versus cost to fit in the demand. Working together with partners closely, Wincomm has innovated this optional cable gland for external I.O. selection to overcome this challenge to deliver solutions time to market. The full IP stainless steel panel PC series, including all sizes and wide temp ones of WTP-9E66 series, WTP-8B66 series, and WTP-8D66 series, are going to take the lead for this new design, and it would maximum I.O. combination based on various conditions by its flexible cable grommets with up to 5 external I.O. selections.  Users could select your suitable product SKU by figure 2, and the selection procedures are listed below,
　　
Selection Step I:　Select 5 I.O. interface combination from internal I.O. such as, USB 3.0, USB 2.0, COM, LAN, Video Out, Line-Out and Mic-In.
