Data plugs commonly used in networking and communication applications. Plugs conform to the FCC68 specification and are generally defined by WECO+ or RJ numbers. Each plug type is clearly identified by the number of contact positions followed by the number of contacts. By example a 6//4 plug has 6 contact positions with 4 contacts loaded. MMJ (Modular Modified Jack) and keyed versions are also available.

TE Connectivity Cat3 RJ45 Single Port Modular Jack Connectors

A range of Cat5 RJ45 stacked modular jack connectors with a low profile design that enable more ports to be mounted in less space on the PCB. These RJ45 stacked modular jacks have a side entry (right angle mounting) or top entry (vertical mounting). Shielding offers EMI/RFI protection along with optional PCB or panel grounding. These RJ45 stacked jack connectors are available with integrated LEDs for identifying line status and collisions. Built in LEDS eliminate the need for separate indicators therefore saving system space. The housings of these RJ45 jacks are made from UL 94V-0 flame retardant polyester and pre-loaded with gold plated contacts. These RJ45 Cat5 stacked modular jacks have a performance that exceeds NEXT (Near End Crosstalk) requirements of -40 dB on all pair combinations at 100 MHz per EIA/TIA 568A. All models are highly reliable and excellent quality.

Features and Benefits

Stacked ports for PCB space saving
Top and side entry mounting
Shielding for EMI/RFI protection
PCB and panel grounding options
Integrated LEDS for line status indication
UL 94V-0 flame retardant housings

Applications

These RJ45 Cat3 connectors are suitable for use in applications that require performance in in voice, data and high-speed networking. These applications include communications (telephones, routers servers), computers, business equipment, consumer electronics and wireless base stations.

RS PRO RJ45 Punch Free Modular RJ45 Connector

From RS PRO, this 8-pin RJ45 modular connector is a high-quality solution to network cable connections. The plug terminates easily to a stranded cable with a punch down system that ensures a neat and secure connection. It is panel mounting for a socket connection in ethernet capable devices.

This RJ45 plug has a fireproof ABS IL-94V0 construction, meaning it is suitable for use in challenging circumstances.

Features and Benefits

• 8P8C cable mount modular socket
• Suitable for Cat5e Ethernet Applications
• Compatible with RJ45 plugs
• Gold plated phosphor bronze contacts
• Fireproof ABS IL-94V0 connector body

Applications

RJ45 connectors are a standardized network interface for ethernet connections and are often used in LAN (Local Area Network) setups with UTP cabling. This modular plug is used to construct RJ45 ethernet cable assemblies, to connect devices or projects to a network. It is commonly employed where a hardwired network connection is necessary, or in server racks.
This standardized RJ45 plug is still widely used in;

• Modems
• PC and Laptop computers
• Smart televisions

RS PRO RJ45 Connector Plug

From RS PRO, this 8-pin RJ45 modular connector is a high-quality solution to network cable connections. The plug terminates easily to a stranded cable to make data cable assemblies for ethernet connectivity.

The RJ45 connector meets the Cat6 and Cat6A standards and is backward compatible with other category cables, such as Cat5 and Cat3.

The connector is unshielded, and so not suitable for use in environments where EMI interference is a concern.

Features and Benefits

• 8P8C cable mount modular plug
• Suitable for Cat6 and Cat6a Ethernet Applications
• Compatible with RJ45 sockets
• Gold plated phosphor bronze contacts
• UL94V0 polycarbonate plastic body
