In modern PCB design, saving even a few millimeters of board space can be the difference between a sleek, portable product and a bulky one. The RJ45 8P8C 90-Degree 18mm Short Body Modular Jack byPran Electronics Pvt. Ltd. is specifically engineered for high-density applications where depth is restricted.
With a compact 18mm body length, this unshielded (UTP) connector provides a low-profile, side-entry solution without compromising the signal integrity of your Ethernet connections.
Size: 15x18x12.6mm height
Part code: JP-S2-8P8C
Engineered for High-Density PCB Layouts
The “18mm Short Body” design is a strategic choice for engineers working with limited “Z-axis” or horizontal depth. This connector is optimized for:
-
Compact Footprint: By reducing the connector depth to 18mm, it frees up valuable real estate on the PCB for other critical components like capacitors, micro controllers, or power modules.
-
Slimline Enclosures: Ideal for ultra-thin networking devices, hand-held diagnostic tools, and compact IoT gateways.
-
Efficient Cable Management: The 90-degree (Right Angle) entry directs the Ethernet cable parallel to the PCB, minimizing the clearance needed behind the device
Key Product Features
-
Standard 8P8C Configuration: Fully compatible with standard RJ45 plugs used in Cat5e and Cat6 networking.
-
Unshielded (Non-Shielded) Design: A lightweight and cost-effective solution for environments where metal shielding is not required, offering a cleaner aesthetic for plastic enclosures.
-
Premium Contact Plating: High-grade gold plating over nickel ensures low contact resistance and prevents corrosion over thousands of mating cycles.
-
Robust Through-Hole Mounting: Designed with sturdy THT (Through-Hole Technology) pins for a secure mechanical anchor, preventing “solder joint fatigue” from frequent cable plugging.
-
High-Temperature Performance: The housing is molded from high-grade thermoplastic (UL 94V-0), capable of withstanding the heat of professional wave soldering.
