In the design of high-density networking hardware, consolidating connections is key to efficiency. The 1×4 Port RJ45 8P8C 90-Degree Modular Jack by
Pran Electronics Pvt. Ltd.is a multi-port solution engineered to streamline PCB layouts. By housing four independent Ethernet ports in a single, unshielded housing, this component significantly reduces assembly time and board complexity.

ThisQuad-Port (1×4) configuration is ideal for network switches, hubs, and industrial controllers where multiple data streams must be managed in a compact horizontal space.

Optimized for High-Density Connectivity

The 1×4 Port Multi-port Modular Jack offers a streamlined alternative to using four individual connectors. Its design provides several strategic advantages for OEMs:

• Space Efficiency: By using a single housing for four ports, it minimizes the “dead space” between connectors, allowing for a more compact front-panel design.

• Simplified Assembly: Reducing the component count on your Bill of Materials (BOM) leads to faster pick-and-place and wave soldering cycles.

• Precision Alignment: A single 1×4 block ensures that all four ports are perfectly aligned with the enclosure’s cutouts, eliminating the risk of individual port tilting or misalignment.

• Robust Integrated Design: The unified body offers better structural integrity on the PCB compared to four isolated single-port connectors.

Key Product Features

• Right-Angle (90-Degree) Entry: The side-entry orientation is perfect for horizontal PCB mounting, directing Ethernet cables parallel to the board for a lower device profile.

• 8P8C Standard Interface: Each port features a full 8-position, 8-contact configuration, fully compatible with Cat5e and Cat6 Ethernet standards.

• Unshielded (UTP) Configuration: A cost-effective, high-performance solution for applications where internal metal shielding is not required, offering a clean and professional aesthetic.

• High-Conductivity Gold Contacts: Each contact is selectively gold-plated over nickel to ensure low-resistance data transmission and superior protection against atmospheric corrosion.

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