Modular Connectors - Jacks: 0441440003 application field and working principle

Modular connectors including jacks are an important part of the global electronics ecosystem. This type of connector, a standard for many industrial and networking environments, is widely used in a variety of applications and is mountable to any type of board. One such example of this standard connector is the 0441440003 from Smiths Interconnect, a manufacturer of high-performance, reliable connector solutions.

The 0441440003 is a mid-tier modular jack designed to meet a variety of application requirements. It features a 24-position receptacle design and is suitable for controlled impedance (CTI) Category 5e requirements up to 2.5GHz. This jack also supports up to three different types of datacom and telephone applications. The connector terminates single-mode, tight buffered or 250um multimode fiber optic cables while also supporting IEEE 802.3 networks. Additionally, this jack supports free rotation on each axis to provide flexible termination and arrangement options.

The 0441440003 also incorporates a versatile and economical design including a die-cast zinc alloy back shell with a stainless steel latch. The jack features a low-profile form factor, making it suitable for space-restricted applications such as data centers and home office use. The 0441440003 jack is IP67 rated, providing the waterproof performance needed in outdoor applications or harsh environments.

In terms of working principle, the 0441440003 is designed to reduce signal transmission errors. This connector uses a jacketed interface with a stainless steel latch that secures the cable. This helps to enforce uniform connection throughout the entire cable system, reducing signal reflections and returning signal loss. To ensure durability, the 0441440003 incorporates reliable contact termination points and a corrosion-resistant design.

Available in vertical and horizontal configurations, the 0441440003 jack from Smiths Interconnect is a versatile and economical solution for industrial, networking and datacom and telecom applications. Its mid-tier performance and design features like IP67-rated waterproof performance and free rotation make the 0441440003 ideal for space-constrained applications that require reliable, consistent signal transmission.
