Modular connectors - jacks are plugs and receptacles used for communications and network applications. The specific type of modular connector in this article is 216780-1. It is a 6-way, two row, 1.27 mm, shielded right angle plug with two latches. The connector, along with its accessories, is suitable for hot plugging and are widely used in data transmission and fiber-optic applications.

Application Field

216780-1 connectors are often used in topics such as data transmission, computer networking, work station, and broadcast. It is designed for very high speed Ethernet applications, and is suitable for thermal features and higher wattage. It finds applications in ethernet, 10-Gigabit ethernet, 10GBase-T, SFP+ as well as various other ethernet applications. The connector also has wide range compatibility with several cable and backplane types due to its robust design.

The connector also finds application in the industrial automation and machine vision fields. It is compatible with a variety of ruggedized copper cables and switches, making it ideal for applications in dynamic machines, smart manufacturing processes, and automated guided vehicles. The RJ45 form factor and the shielded enclosure reduce crosstalk between ports and make the connector suitable in industrial automation environments.

Working Principle

Pins inside the 216780-1 connector are made out of copper alloy and are plated with tin. The RJ45 type connectors use two metal pieces that comprise the electrical connection, which are held together with two hooks. The pins are polarized horizontally or vertically, which makes it difficult to incorrectly insert the connector into a female jack or port. This ensures that the signal transmits properly to the receiving device.

The connector has a male jack-type configuration that electrically connects when mated with a compatible socket. It has a 0.7 mm pin pitch with two rows of six pins, consists of 4 paired differential signals along with a common ground and two power/common pins. It is one of the most robust RJ45 connectors available due to its robust structure and can hold up to to 5-75N force for more durable use.

The body of the 216780-1 connector is made out of plastic with metal latches at the top to secure the connector and prevent any damage due to accidental disconnection. They also have two cover latches to make sure that the connector is well sealed and protected from dust, debris, and liquids. The connector is compatible with Cat 5e, Cat 6a, Cat 7a, Cat 8, and other copper-based cables, and supports up to 10 Gbps data rates.

The connector is also designed with a PCB footprint that makes it suitable for both surface mount and through hole protocols for easy integration into electronics. Its right angle configuration also occupies less space than other connector types.

Conclusion

The 216780-1 connector is a robust, shielded, and reliable RJ45-style modular connector suitable for high-speed communication and networking applications. It is compatible with several inputs such as Cat 5e, Cat 6a, Cat 7a, and Cat 8, and supports up to 10 Gbps speeds. It also has a right angle orientation that helps to reduce size and complexity. It is also designed for durability and comes with two metal latches to prevent accidental disconnection. It finds application in data transmission, computer networking, work station, and broadcast areas, as well as in industrial automation and machine vision.
