Amphenol NET Bridge Ethernet Cable

Not every Ethernet link lives inside the cabin. Modern vehicles pack exterior-facing sensors - outside rearview cameras, side corner radar, surround-view cameras, under-hood Ethernet ECUs - where the connector must survive water, mud, road salt and temperature swings. Standard in-cabin connectors leak; you need a watertight, IP-sealed connector system.

Amphenol's NETBridge waterproof single-port connector is exactly that: the same high-speed shielded contact platform as the in-cabin NETBridge , but with a sealed, IP-rated housing black A-coded designed for under-hood and exterior mounting. It carries shielded twisted-pair Ethernet over the LTK STP 0.14 mm² cable - 100 ± 5 Ω differential impedance, aluminum-foil tinned-copper braid shield, TPE jacket rated to 60 V and −40~105 °C - so a multi-gigabit link survives in the harshest vehicle locations.

When the sensor lives outside the cabin, the connector has to be as weatherproof as the sensor itself. This NETBridge waterproof single-port harness gives you an IP-sealed Ethernet drop - female-to-female between two sealed panels, or female-to-male straight onto an exterior sensor. Pick the gender combination that matches your link.

Product Specifications

Available Configurations

NETBridge Waterproof Female to Waterproof Female NTHCF011A10S  NTHCF011A10S

Bullet Points

• Short lengths 0.5 m–3 m for tight bumper mirror door routing

• Sealed housing survives water spray, mud and road salt on exterior under-hood links

• Built on LTK STP 0.14 mm² cable - aluminum-foil tinned-braid shield, 100 ± 5 Ω, 60 V, −40~105 °C

• Both ends: Amphenol NETBridge single-port A-coded female, black, waterproof NTHCF011A10S

Features

• Factory-terminated, 100% continuity shielding tested before dispatch

•  Red release latch gives an audible, secure lock under vehicle vibration

• TPE jacket stays flexible at −40 °C and resists engine-bay heat and oil

• Both ends are IP-sealed female sockets - perfect for extending between two waterproof panel bulkhead receptacles

NETBridge Waterproof Female to Waterproof Male NTHCF011A10S  NTHCM011A10W

Bullet Points

• LTK STP 0.14 mm² fully-shielded cable, 100 ± 5 Ω, −40~105 °C

•Device side: NETBridge single-port A-coded male, black, waterproof NTHCM011A10W

• Panel side: NETBridge single-port A-coded female, black, waterproof NTHCF011A10S

• Male plug mates directly into the waterproof female socket on an exterior camera radar under-hood ECU

Features

• Typical for exterior rearview cameras, corner radar and under-hood Ethernet ECUs

• One factory-sealed assembly replaces hand-built wires that leak or fail EMC tests

• The male end NTHCM011A10W is the IP-sealed plug version - no exposed contacts when unmated

• Female-to-male form factor extends a sealed panel socket out to a sensor-mounted female receptacle

Applications 

Closing line: Because both the connectors and the TPE-jacketed STP cable are specified for exterior use, the Ethernet link stays sealed and 100 Ω-balanced - the red latch makes every mating audible, and the IP-rated housing keeps water and dust out where in-cabin connectors would corrode.

Product FAQ

Q1: Can I get a male-to-male or custom-length waterproof harness?

Yes. We support custom lengths and gender combinations including male-to-male built to your drawing. Send us your connector photos and target length, and we will quote the matching waterproof assembly.

Q2:Is this genuine Amphenol NETBridge?

Yes. Connectors are genuine Amphenol NETBridge waterproof single-port A-coded parts - female NTHCF011A10S and male NTHCM011A10W, black housing. Cable is LTK STP 0.14 mm², TPE jacket, 100 ± 5 Ω, RoHS 2.0.

Q3: Which length should I order?

0.5 m for tight bumper mirror-base jumps; 1 m for door-to-body runs; 2 m–3 m for under-hood trunk routing. This product is stocked in short lengths because waterproof exterior links are typically short; longer runs are quoted on request.

Q4:What does "waterproof" mean here?

The housing and seal design is rated for exterior under-hood use - the connector stays sealed against water spray, dust and road spray when mated. This is the IP-sealed version of NETBridge , as opposed to the non-waterproof in-cabin NTHCF022A10U etc. variants.
