E5544-60LU22-L

E5544-60LU22-L is a kind of modular connector jack and its application field and working principle will be discussed in this article.

To start with, the primary function of a modular connector is to create connection between different communication devices or equipments, and its application field is quite broad. A jack is the female connector in a modular connector pair connection, the other side (the male connector) is a plug which the internal contacts of a jack currently connect to.

E5544-60LU22-L is a surface mount modular jack with 28 contacts with gold finish, and a more general, favorable attribute of the jack is that just 4.0 x 4.08mm in size. What’s more, the jack is designed to meet the requirements of 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet Applications. Thanks to all of these features, the jack is perfect for integrated system applications such as mobile phones, laptop computers and even media servers at home.

Coming to the working principle of E5544-60LU22-L, for this kind of jack, signal connections are made through contact pins which are embedded in the jack’s body. When the plug is pushed in, its contact pins are inserted into the corresponding metal surfaces of the jack’s internal contact pins and establish a satisfactory electrical connection. At the same time, a secure mechanical lock is created which ensures that the plug is securely connected to the jack and remains in place. What’s important is, the connection remains stable no matter how the connected devices are physically moved or disturbed in any way.

The only difference between these contact pins and traditional pins or soldered points is that connection between them is reversible and reusable. Generally speaking, this kind of modular jacks can be separated by pulling the plug out from the jack without any damage to either side. Low profile and robust connection are also among its advantages.

In short, as one of the most popular and widely used modular connectors in the world, E5544-60LU22-L provides versatile features and working principles that make it versatile and perfect for many types of applications. From phone lines, VoIP/IP phones, to integrated systems in computers and home networks, modular connectors provide the necessary connection point to make them complete and allow for reliable transmission of information.
