Streamlined Design for High-Density PCBs

The 1×2 Ganged RJ45 offers a cleaner and more efficient alternative to mounting two individual single-port connectors. Its design provides several benefits for engineers and manufacturers:

• Footprint Optimization: By housing two ports in a single block, the distance between ports is minimized, freeing up valuable space on the PCB for other surface-mount components.

• Faster Assembly: Using a 1×2 block reduces the number of components on your Bill of Materials (BOM) and speeds up the through-hole soldering process.

• Perfect Alignment: A unified housing ensures that both ports are perfectly leveled and aligned with the front-panel cutouts of your enclosure, reducing mechanical interference issues.

• Cost-Effective Connectivity: The unshielded (UTP) design provides a lightweight and budget-friendly solution for applications where internal data transmission is protected by the device’s plastic casing or a low-noise environment.

Key Product Features

• Right-Angle (90-Degree) Orientation: Side-entry design is perfect for horizontal mounting, allowing for a lower device profile and easier cable access in desktop or rack-mount equipment.

• Standard 8P8C Interface: Each of the two ports features 8 positions and 8 contacts, fully compatible with Cat5e and Cat6 Ethernet cables.

• High-Conductivity Gold Contacts: Contacts are selectively gold-plated over nickel, ensuring a stable, low-resistance connection and protecting against oxidation over long-term use.

• Durable Thermoplastic Housing: Molded from high-grade, UL 94V-0 rated thermoplastic, designed to withstand standard wave soldering and industrial operating temperatures.

• Robust THT Mounting: Features sturdy solder pins for Through-Hole Technology (THT) mounting, providing excellent mechanical stability during repetitive plugging and unplugging.
