Single Port Modular Jacks

TE Connectivity

Keyed

Designed for the use with a keyed plug to

ensure proper mating and will also accept a

standard plug

Mounting pegs

Provide location and retention support dur-

ing soldering processes, but do not function

as boardlocks. The majority of modular

jacks have some type of mounting peg.

RJ Designation

Modular jacks are commonly misrepresented by the Registered

Jack (RJ) designations shown below. TE Connectivity modular jacks

should be selected by position size and number of contacts loaded.

Product Features

Shielded

A metal shell that provides EMI/RFI

protection. EMI* RFI is unwanted

electromagnetic energy (or “noise”) in the

frequency range that is generally used in

radio communication.

Inverted

Contacts are on the bottom and the latch

is on the top to allow for alternate location

of latch.

Grounding Options

Panel Ground — Makes contact with the

panel for ground connections

PCB Ground — Makes contact with the PCB

for ground connections

LEDs

Integrated into the modular jack, eliminating

the need for additional system space for

indicators. Available in multiple colors and

configurations.

Panel Stops

Provides additional mechanical support,

especially with top entry jacks.
