Premier Cable PCM-XY-0004 is a customized cable assembly designed for automotive electronic interconnection applications, connecting NETBridge to H-MTD. According to the product drawings, one end of the harness uses an Amphenol NETBridge A-Code Jack with part number NTHCF0B6A11S, while the other end uses a Rosenberger H-MTD Z-Code Jack with part number E6K10A-1CAZ5-Z.

The assembly uses LTK 1000M shielded twisted-pair (STP) Ethernet cable and has a specified length of 2,000 ± 30 mm. The drawing specifies 100 Ω nominal impedance, a frequency range of DC–10 GHz, a minimum 500 Vrms dielectric withstand requirement, 100% continuity testing, and a minimum cable retention force of 110 N.

This configuration helps engineers distinguish the primary data connection from auxiliary conductors during system design and validation. It can be evaluated as a pre-assembled interconnection solution for automotive electronics projects requiring interface verification, auxiliary-wire management, and defined cable routing.

Product Overview

PCM-XY-0004 is a pre-assembled automotive cable assembly that connects the Amphenol NETBridge A-Code interface with the Rosenberger H-MTD Z-Code interface. It consists of specified connectors, shielded cables, and six independent 20 AWG auxiliary conductors. It can be used for wired interconnection between ECUs, gateways, and laboratory test platforms that meet the requirements of interface, electrical characteristics, and pin definitions, supporting the integrated development, prototyping, and harness verification of automotive electronic networks.

According to the wiring configuration, the auxiliary conductors corresponding to pins 3–8 at the P1 end are marked as "Open" at the P2 end, facilitating engineers in identifying unconnected lines and managing the harness properly. This product is a passive cable assembly and does not possess active protocol conversion functionality;

Typical Applications

Automotive Electronic Control Units

Can be evaluated for interconnecting ECUs, network nodes, and gateways equipped with compatible NETBridge or H-MTD interfaces.

ADAS Perception-System Development

Can be considered for wired interconnections around automotive cameras, radar units, and perception controllers. Support for a particular sensor interface depends on the equipment design and complete-link validation.

Automotive Ethernet Gateway and Switch Validation

Can be used for interface-adaptation evaluation, network-node interconnection, and laboratory harness validation.

Prototype Development and HIL Test Platforms

The pre-assembled length and defined auxiliary-wire configuration can support prototype systems, test fixtures, and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) environments.

Product Knowledge

◆ Why Can a Cable Fail to Communicate Properly Even When the Connectors Mate?

Successful physical mating only indicates that the mechanical interface may be compatible. It does not guarantee that the pin assignments, signal polarity, grounding structure, and electrical performance meet the required specifications. For the NETBridge A-Code and H-MTD Z-Code combination, verify the complete part numbers and mating compatibility before checking the actual wiring against the drawings.

For automotive Ethernet applications, differential-channel performance must also be validated. Successful mating or continuity testing alone does not establish communication capability.

Product FAQ

What Is the Difference Between NETBridge A-Code and H-MTD Z-Code ?

NETBridge A-Code and H-MTD Z-Code are different connector configurations with their own mechanical designs and mating requirements. PCM-XY-0004 combines these interfaces in one cable assembly using Amphenol NTHCF0B6A11S and Rosenberger E6K10A-1CAZ5-Z. Verify the complete part numbers rather than relying on coding names alone.

What Is the Purpose of Using STP Ethernet Cable ?

The PCM-XY-0004 drawing specifies LTK 1000M STP Ethernet cable. Shielding helps manage the effects of external electromagnetic interference, although the final result also depends on shield continuity, connector termination, grounding, and the vehicle's wiring environment.

Can the Cable Be Pulled by Its Connector During Installation ?

The connector housing or locking feature should not be used as an unrestricted pulling point. The drawing's minimum 110 N cable-retention requirement is a defined mechanical requirement, not permission to apply arbitrary installation loads in any direction or for any duration. Control pulling forces and protect the termination areas during routing.

Does Premier Cable Offer Wholesale and OEM Services ?

Premier Cable can evaluate connector integration, custom cable assemblies, OEM manufacturing, and volume procurement according to project requirements.
