The **A-MCSSP60010-R** is a specific part number primarily associated with **network cabling and modular connectivity components**, specifically manufactured by **ASSMANN WSW Components**. Below is a detailed breakdown of its electronic and physical characteristics. --- ### 1. General Specifications This part is a high-quality **RJ45 Modular Plug** designed for high-speed data transmission and reliable network connectivity. | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Connector Type** | RJ45 (8P8C) | | **Shielding** | Shielded (STP/FTP) | | **Contact Plating** | Gold over Nickel | | **Category Rating** | Category 6 (Cat6) | | **Mounting Type** | Cable Mount (Crimp) | | **Body Orientation** | Straight | --- ### 2. Key Electronic Parts & Construction The component is composed of several critical sub-elements that define its performance: #### A. Contacts (The Pins) * **Material:** Usually Phosphor Bronze. * **Plating:** Typically features **50 micro-inches of Gold plating**. This is crucial for preventing oxidation and ensuring low contact resistance over the lifespan of the connector. * **Design:** These are "piercing" contacts designed to penetrate the insulation of the twisted pair wires. #### B. The Shield (Metal Shell) * **Material:** Nickel-plated Brass or Copper alloy. * **Function:** Unlike unshielded plugs (UTP), this part has a metal wrap that connects to the cable's drain wire. This prevents **Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)** and maintains signal integrity in noisy environments. #### C. Internal Load Bar (If applicable) * Cat6 plugs often include a "load bar" or "staggered" wire alignment. This internal plastic guide keeps the wire pairs separated until the very last moment before the crimp, reducing **Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT)**. --- ### 3. Technical Performance Metrics | Parameter | Value/Description | | :--- | :--- | | **Maximum Voltage** | 150 VAC max | | **Current Rating** | 1.5 Amps | | **Contact Resistance** | < 20 mΩ | | **Insulation Resistance** | > 500 MΩ | | **Dielectric Strength** | 1000 VAC (RMS) | --- ### 4. Applications The **A-MCSSP60010-R** is typically used in: 1. **High-Speed Data Centers:** Where shielded Cat6 cables are required to prevent data loss. 2. **Industrial Environments:** Where electric motors or machinery might cause signal interference. 3. **Custom Patch Cords:** For IT professionals building bespoke length networking cables. ---
