Conector PLUX NEM 658 , NEXT y NEM

[Santiago]

Ver el esquema de colores de Markos, me ha recordado el tema de los conectores PluX que teoricamente pronto iban a equipar las locomotoras, ¿sabe alguien como anda este tema?

Hay pocos comentarios en todos los aspectos sobre él y ya hay algún deco que lo incluye :

The Mysterious NEM-658 PluX-12 DCC connector
Posted on September 1, 2011 by Bevis King

While generally the US model scene seems content with just the standard 8-pin NMRA standard connector, the European scene has also long had the NEM-651 6-pin connector for use in N-scale locomotives obviating the need for a custom shaped PCB board replacement decoder. Recent times have seen the desire for a better connector standard produce a new 21-pin connector known as PluX22 (see comments for more info). This decoder connection includes many more function channels for interior lights, classification lights, speakers etc. This connector is now getting quite common on European (including UK) models.

Much less known is it’s N-scale equivalent, the NEM-658 PluX-12 connector. I’ve just ordered a loco – a model of the very common DBAG (German Railways) class BR218 Diesel locomotive – which features this connector. So far my efforts to find out more have come to nought. Simply searching Google for NEM 658 or PluX-12 produces loads of foreign language responses. Even asking Google to restrict results to English produces nothing relevant and in fact actually even in English on the whole first page of results – a pretty epic failure. So I’m going to use this blog entry to try and do something about that and to record my efforts to find out more and to get a suitable decoder for this locomotive….

Update: The only current decoder with this connector appears to be the CT Electronik DCX51-P12 but apparently this doesn’t fit some of the Tillig locos due to being too wide. The next hope is that ESU have announced one but I don’t if it’s available yet. Apparently a six-pin decoder can also be used if it has right-angled pins…. none of the ones I’ve seen do, but maybe they can be bent into shape

El problema es que cada fabricante tire para sus propios decoders, como el nuevo NEXT18 tambien...

Por ejemplo el de ESU 54686 ESU LokPilot micro V 4.0 DCC Next18

Me parece que van por ahi los tiros.

Roco ha sacado su propio deco con 16 pines.

Si, ya he visto también el Next18 (NEM 662) y al parecer piensan utilizarlo también Liliput y Piko. Por si fuera poco creo que Minitrix también planea un nuevo conector. Pues como cada marca tire para su conector esto será la jungla...

Pero vamos yo sobre todo me referia a si en el mercado había ya algun deco ó maquina PLUX, porque por lo menos para N no he visto nada.
