H-MTD Quad Female to 4× H-MTD Female Cable
This configuration converts one Rosenberger E6K10D-1CAZ5-Z H-MTD Quad Female interface into four individual H-MTD Female connections. The four-channel breakout design provides independent access to each differential data path while keeping the controller-side connection compact. It is suitable for ADAS development, automotive Ethernet networks, multi-channel ECU connections, HIL benches and prototype vehicle wiring where four separate H-MTD interfaces are required.
H-MTD Quad Female to 4× H-MTD Male Cable
This version combines the E6K10D-1CAZ5-Z H-MTD Quad Female connector with four individual H-MTD Male connectors, providing a practical fan-out connection between a high-density four-channel interface and separate H-MTD ports. It is designed for ECU integration, automotive Ethernet test systems, domain controller development and vehicle network validation, making individual channels easier to connect, identify and access during system integration or laboratory testing.
H-MTD Quad Female to 4× GEMnet Female Cable
Designed for mixed-interface automotive networks, this cable converts the H-MTD Quad Female connection into four individual GEMnet Female interfaces. It provides a convenient transition between H-MTD based multi-channel equipment and compatible GEMnet connections without requiring four separate cables at the controller side. This configuration is well suited for automotive Ethernet development, ECU test benches, prototype vehicles, signal breakout and network integration involving both H-MTD and GEMnet interfaces.
H-MTD Quad Female to 4× GEMnet Male Cable
This configuration features one Rosenberger E6K10D-1CAZ5-Z H-MTD Quad Female connector and four individual GEMnet Male outputs. The fan-out structure separates the four differential channels for connection to compatible GEMnet interfaces, providing greater flexibility when integrating different automotive data connector systems. Typical uses include ECU development, domain controller testing, automotive Ethernet validation, prototype harnesses and laboratory setups requiring accessible individual data channels.
H-MTD Quad Female to H-MTD Quad Female Cable
This version uses H-MTD Quad Female connectors at both ends, providing a direct four-channel extension between compatible high-density H-MTD interfaces. Unlike the four breakout versions, all four differential channels remain integrated within the Quad connector architecture, helping maintain a compact and organized wiring layout. It is suitable for extending connections between automotive ECUs, domain controllers, network modules, development platforms and test equipment equipped with compatible H-MTD Quad interfaces.

Connection & Ordering Notes
For Rosenberger E6K10D-1CAZ5-Z H-MTD Quad cable assemblies, the mating interface, connector gender, coding and channel definition should be confirmed before production to ensure correct connection with the target equipment.
- Confirm the required H-MTD or GEMnet interface and connector gender.
- Verify the mating connector part number and coding with the target device.
- Confirm the channel mapping and pin assignment for all four differential pairs.
- Specify the required overall length and individual breakout branch lengths.
- Provide equipment interface information or drawings for custom assemblies when available.
For installation and servicing, mate and release the connector using its designated locking mechanism. Avoid pulling directly on the cable or breakout branches to help protect the termination and maintain reliable connector engagement.
↕ Four Channels Through One Equipment Interface
A single Quad connection provides four independent differential signal paths at the equipment interface, making it suitable for controllers that require multiple high-speed links through one defined connection point.
□ Simplifies Platform-Level Interface Planning
Using a standardized multi-channel connection helps engineers organize interface allocation at the ECU or controller level, particularly when several downstream data links must be managed within the same electronic platform.
◉ Supports Modular Harness Development
Individual channels can be routed to H-MTD or GEMnet interfaces according to the target architecture, allowing the harness design to be adapted as vehicle modules, test configurations or interface requirements change.
Product FAQ
Q1: Can the four breakout channels use different connector types in one cable assembly?
Yes. Mixed breakout configurations can be produced according to project requirements. The connector type, gender and channel arrangement should be defined before production to ensure each branch matches its intended equipment interface.
Q2: Can the four breakout branches be made in different lengths?
Yes. In addition to the overall cable length, individual branch lengths can be customized to match connector locations inside a vehicle, test bench or electronic system, helping accommodate different routing distances from the main breakout point.
Q3: What information should I provide for a custom H-MTD Quad cable?
Please provide the mating connector information, required connector gender, coding, pin assignment, overall cable length and branch dimensions. Equipment drawings or existing harness specifications are also helpful for confirming the correct assembly.
Q4: Can this cable be supplied for prototype and small-batch projects?
Custom assemblies can be configured for engineering development, prototype builds and project-specific requirements. Connector combinations, cable construction, lengths and quantities can be discussed according to the intended system and production needs.
Q5: How should I confirm compatibility before placing an order?
Do not verify compatibility by connector appearance alone. Check the connector series, coding, gender, mating part number, channel definition and pin assignment against the target device to ensure the complete cable assembly matches the electrical interface.
