ABS
ABS material (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) is a type of thermoplastic that is very resistant to impact or shock.
Its applications are several, for example is a material widely used in the manufacture of interiors or components of cars such as moldings, as well as in products for domestic use such as toys, tools, housings of electrical devices etc.
One of its most important characteristics is its great tenacidad in almost all types of temperatures.
Being a very hard material has good chemical resistance, low water absorption and high resistance to abrasion, where other types of plastics would be more brittle.
This type of material is becoming very famous in the particular field and widely used due to the great growth in the sales of domestic 3D printers, the main printing raw material.next to the PLA.
Identification of ABS
Parts that are made of ABS material must be marked in accordance with ISO 11469 (DIN 58840).
Terminal Block 110 (TB110)
It is called TB110 or terminal block 110 to the type of block system for the connection of certain wiring systems, such as in network installations, typical connector used in most patch panels.
The denomination 110 refers to the type of encapsulation available to the connectors, a crimp system that needs to press the connection cable downwards.
One of the advantages of this type of connectionres is its small size, guaranteeing more connectors in less space.
This type of connector requires a special tool, called an impact tool, which performs two functions at the same time.
Once the cables are placed in their corresponding positions we will use the crimping tool pressing down with the side of the blade on the outside, thus getting to press the cable towards abajo, crushing it, in turn the blade will cut the excess wire.
Rack unit (U)
There are several cabinet heights according to the needs of the installation, this height can be measured in rack units (U).
Each rack unit or U is the distance between each horizontal separation to place the different accessories inside the rack. This distance is 1.75 inches that is equal to 4.4445 cm high.
For example, if we say that a rack is 8U we will understand that it has 8 units to install device orAccessories of 4.44 cm in height.
Normally these accessories, like trays, guides, strips, etc. Occupy a unit of U (1U), but we can find that other devices or accessories occupy more units, for example can be a rack box to install a PC, a UPS, etc. It can be said that there is also a half unit of U (0.5U), in this case, two units could be installed in a rack unit.
As far as I knowEndo the units of rack that occupy the devices that we are going to install we will know the height that we need for our rack.
The size of the rack unit (U) is based on the standard specification for racks defined in EIA-310.

RJ45
When we talk about RJ45 ("Registered Jack" 45) we refer to a telecommunications network interface for wired connection of voice and data equipment.
This connector has 8 pins or connections and may have a specific category depending on the data transfer speed and bandwidth (category 5e, 6, etc.)
The common application is their use in Ethernet network cables under TIA/EIA-568-B standard that defines the arrangement of pins (pinout), but can also be used for other applications.

Types of network cables (UTP, FTP, STP)
UTP cable is standard twisted pair is referred by its acronym UTP (Unshiedld Twiested Pair/Unshielded Twisted Pair). The major advantages of this cable are its low cost and ease of handling. Its main disadvantages are a higher error rate compared to other cable types and their limitations to work at high distances without regeneration. FTP is a type of cable caracteriza that each twisted pair is uniformly during creation. A comprehensive screening of all pairs is performed by a apantallante outer sheet. This technique allows to have similar characteristics to the shielded cable. STP is characterized by that each pair is covered with a metal mesh, in the same way that the coaxial cables, and the set of pairs is coated with a sheet apantallante. Referenced frequently with their acronym STP (Shield Twisted Pair/Shielded Twisted Pair)
RACK 19
A rack is a metal support designed to house electronic, computer and communications equipment. The measures for the width are normalized to be compatible with most equipment manufacturers. They are also called racks, cabinets, cabinets or closets. Each column has holes at regular intervals called U rack units (Pictured: 4) grouped in threes. The height (Pictured:5) of the racks is standardized and external dimensions of 200 mm by 200 mm. Being normal that from 4U to 46/47U height width types (Pictured: 7). Standard 600 mm or 800 mm Types of background (Pictured: 6) The depth of the frame is not standardized, as this flexibility is granted (Pictured: 8) to the equipment. The most common are: - 450 mm - 600 mm - 800 mm - 900 mm - 1000 mm - 1200 mm Type 19-inch rack can find various types of 19-inch rack. Rack Mural (Pictured: 2): Used to accommodate electronic network. They are the smallest and are anchored to wall. Rack Pie (Pictured: 1): They are used primarily for servers, UPS and network electronics. Open Rack (Pictured: 3): Open Rack Racks are available only modelsstructure, eliminating doors and other accessories.
