Modular Connectors - Plugs

Modular plugs are widely used for many types of applications in many different environments. They are small, easy to install and are available in a variety of different pin designs to suit almost any need. Most are required to comply with industry standard specifications.A modular plug is essentially just a connector with multiple contact or pin points for terminating cables and wires. Ideal for making short and/or temporary connections, they are quick and easy to assemble. Generally speaking, modular plugs are used in two major applications: networking and telecommunications.

Networking

One of the main applications for modular connectors comprises of connecting network cables. Different types of cabling can be used for the purpose of network connections, and the most popular are twisted-pair and coaxial cabling.Modular plugs are available in both shielded and unshielded formats. Shielded plugs are used with shielded cabling and feature additional metal shielding armor which is usually connected to the metallic ground contact on the connector. It is important to use the correct type of connector with the corresponding type of cable. Also, when networking, it is important to not exceed the rated cable diameter specified for the modular plug. Exceeding the specified diameter can lead to a poor connection and potential open contacts.

Telecommunications

Another major application for modular plugs is in telecommunications. Modular plugs are used to terminate the ends of telephone lines as well as for connecting phones to key systems.Modular plugs for telecommunication applications are usually divided into two groups based on the number of pins: 4-pin (RJ11) plugs and 6-pin (RJ12) plugs. The 4-pin plugs are used for single-line applications and the 6-pin plugs are used for multi-line telephone configurations.

Sub Classification

Based on the type of application and environment, modular plugs are further subdivided into sub-classifications. These include but are not limited to: AC plugs, DC plugs, signal plugs, panel mount plugs and field removable plugs.AC plugs are mainly used for indoor AC wiring; whereas DC plugs are mainly used for low voltage outdoor DC wiring. This type of plug is usually waterproof and also features a ground terminal.Signal plugs on the other hand, are mainly used to provide a secure connection between two cables providing signal transmission only. There is no power in these plugs as they are typically used for audio and/or video signal transmission.Panel mount plugs are designed specifically for connecting field instruments to control panels. They are quick and easy to install, allowing rapid access to internal components.Finally, field removable plugs are those which can be installed/removed in the field. This makes them ideal for applications which require frequent changes and/or repairs.

Work Principle

In general, all modular plugs work in substantially the same manner. An internal spring-loaded contactor is pushed against the corresponding contact points on the wire to ensure a secure connection is made.The spring provides a constant and even pressure against the contactor to ensure a uniform connection is made. Once the plug is inserted, the contactors are pushed against the contact points of the wire and a secure connection is made. This also prevents any potential for accidental shorting between contacts.The most common types of modular plugs are USOC or RJ45 style connectors. These use an RJ45 style crimping technology which provides the user with a reliable connection. The claws on the connector ensure that the contactors are making full contact and the cable is securely fastened to the connector. In addition to having RJ45 style connectors, other types of plugs are available which feature various contact configurations. These include dip, screw, spring, zero-insertion force (ZIF) and U-shaped terminal connectors, with the specific contact geometry varying by manufacturer.

Conclusion

Modular plugs are incredibly versatile and useful for almost any type of application. They provide a quick and easy way to connect a variety of different wires, cables and components. By correctly selecting the type of connector and making sure it is appropriately rated for the application, a reliable and secure connection can be made. Combining the correct type of plug with the appropriate terminal connector can also ensure maximum functionality and performance.
