Modular Connectors - Jacks

68899-010 Application Field and Working Principle

The 68899-010 is a modular jack designed by Amphenol Corporation. It belongs to the family of connectors which includes single-port (standard), dual-port (optional) and high performance multi-port (optional). The 68899-010 has two ports, an RJ45 and an RJ50. It is designed to provide reliable interconnects with minimal insertion force for a high performance modular connect. The 68899-010 is the world’s smallest connector in its class, making it ideal for applications in tight spaces.

The 68899-010 is the most reliable and durable connector in its class, featuring a patented clip retainer design for superior connection retention, a self-aligning design for easier installation, and an anti-vibration design for consistent performance. The 68899-010 is also resistant to impacts, water immersion, corrosion and dust, making it suitable for challenging environments. It is also UL listed, CSA certified, RoHS compliant, and meets FCC and EN 60950 e-marking requirements.

The 68899-010 is most commonly used in the industrial automation, home automation, healthcare and entertainment sectors, and is suited for applications in harsh and hazardous environments where reliable performance is crucial. It’s compatible with various types of cables such as CAT5e, CAT6, CAT6A, and CAT7, making it ideal for use in high-speed data communications.

The 68899-010 utilizes a two-stage mating process which engages a clip retention mechanism to ensure reliable performance. This process includes two metal contacts which are held together by a metal clip. The two contacts are positioned to contact the contacts of an opposing opposing mating connector, allowing communication to occur. When a mating connector is mated to the connector, the two metal pins on the clip connect the two contacts together and form a reliable electrical connection. This ensures the connector has a higher durability level and an extended lifetime.

The 68899-010 utilizes a combination of high performance and modular design for a reliable connect. The connector is built to last and to provide a secure connection, even with frequent usage. Its superior design is an ideal choice for applications where low insertion forces are needed, and its reliable performance will ensure that your equipment runs efficiently.

The 68899-010 modular jack proves to be an ideal choice for applications in industrial automation, home automation, healthcare, and entertainment sectors. Its patented clip retainer and self-aligning design make it ideal for applications in tight spaces and ensures a reliable connection. Its high performance, compatibility with various types of cables and UL listed, CSA certified, RoHS compliant and EN 60950 e-marking requirements make it suitable for challenging environments.
