Modular Connectors - Jacks

A modular connector, or jack, is an electrical device designed to connect two or more cables, conductors, and/or electronic components. Modular connectors are used in a wide range of applications including telecommunications, industrial, computing, automotive, entertainment, and medical. The type of connector most commonly used with modular connectors is the RJ-45, a type of plug with eight conducting pins arranged in two rows.

The 17-111084 modular jack connector is a widely used connector in a variety of applications. This type of connector is a shielded RJ-45 connector, meaning it is designed to reduce noise and interference from other types of signals travelling along the same cable. It also features a low insertion force contact system, which means it requires minimum force to make contact. This makes the 17-111084 jack well suited for systems where frequent connections/disconnections take place.

The 17-111084 is primarily used in telecommunications applications, such as networking, telephone systems, and data transmission. They are also used in industrial applications and can be found in robotics, motion control systems, and other industrial control systems. The 17-111084 is also used in home appliances and other consumer electronics, such as home theatre systems, digital radios, and speaker systems.

Working Principle

The 17-111084 modular jack connector works by creating an electrical connection between two or more cables, conductors, or electronic components. It does this by having eight contact points (or pins) which act as the interface between the socket and the plug. The contact points (or pins) are made of metal or another conductive material. When two components are plugged into the 17-111084 socket, the electrical contacts come into contact with each other, creating a connection between the two components.

The 17-111084 connector features a plastic housing which helps protect the contact points from dust, dirt, and liquid. This ensures that the connection between the two components remains strong and reliable. The connector also has an external shield which provides both electrical and mechanical protection from outside interference.

In addition to providing an electrical connection between two components, the 17-111084 also provides additional features such as status LEDs and error reporting. This allows the user to monitor the status of the connection and any potential errors. The connector also features a cable strain relief system which helps to protect the cable from damage and provides additional strain relief.

The 17-111084 modular jack connector is a versatile and reliable connector which is suitable for a wide range of applications. It is easy to install and can be quickly connected and disconnected as needed. It provides a reliable and secure connection and features additional features such as status LEDs and error reporting, making it an ideal choice for a variety of applications.
