   RJ-11
 
     Registered Jack 11 - A four or six wire connector used primarily to connect telephone equipment in the United States.
 
   RJ-45
 
     Registered Jack 45 - An eight-wire connector used to connect computers, printers and other devices into a network.
 
   Telecom / Data / Network Connectors
 
     Connectors are used in the telephone, data and network industry.
 
   Other
 
     Other unlisted, specialized, or proprietary connectors.
 
   Search Logic:      All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.
Gender / Terminations




   Gender       
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   Male / Plug
 
     Male connectors or plugs are often referred to as header or free connectors. In coaxial RF connectors, the plug is normally the movable portion and is usually attached to a cable or removable sub-assembly. In shell type multiple-contact connectors, the plug usually contains the socket contacts and is mounted on the "hot" (rack) side of the system. Plugs mate with receptacles, jacks, outlets, etc.
 
   Female / Jack
 
     Female connectors or jacks are connecting devices into which plugs are inserted to make circuit connections.
 
   Other
 
     Other unlisted gender type.
 
   Search Logic:      All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.
   Terminal Options      Terminals are devices designed to terminate a conductor to be affixed usually to a post, stud, chassis, or other conductor or the like in order to establish electrical connection.
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   Through Hole / Pin
 
     Through-hole technology (THT) mounts components on printed circuit boards by inserting component leads through holes in the board and then soldering. In pin termination, components are mounted on PCBs without soldering.
 
   PCB Solder / Solder Pin
 
     In PCB solder or solder pin termination, electrical connection is made by soldering wires or pins onto a printed circuit board (PCB).
 
   Other
 
     Other unlisted terminal types.
 
   Search Logic:      All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.
RoHS Compliance




   RoHS Compliant
 
     Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) is a European Union (EU) directive that requires all manufacturers of electronic and electrical equipment sold in Europe to demonstrate that their products contain only minimal levels of the following hazardous substances: lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyl and polybrominated diphenyl ether. RoHS will become effective on July 1, 2006.
 
   Search Logic:      "Required" and "Must Not Have" criteria limit returned matches as specified. Products with optional attributes will be returned for either choice.
Performance
The maximum current or maximum voltage defined by an approval organization may differ from the supplier's maximums. In many cases, the product can be used safely at an unapproved level. Check with the supplier for specific usage details.



   Current Rating
 
     Current rating is the maximum, recommended, continuous flow of electrical current.
 
   Search Logic:      User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
   Voltage Rating
 
     Voltage rating is the maximum operating voltage.
 
   Search Logic:      User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
   Number of Contacts
 
     The number of contacts is the number of conductive elements that mate with a corresponding element to provide an electrical path.
 
   Search Logic:      User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
   Contact Size (AWG):
 
     An electrical contact is the termination of an electrical wire in the connector's pin or socket.  Contact size, also referred to as "Termination Size," is the maximum diameter wire the connector can accommodate.

Wire size is measured according to the American Wire Gauge (AWG) standard. In North America, wire area is measured by the American Wire Gauge (AWG) to indicate conductor size. The AWG is used to measure certain conductors including copper. The higher the AWG number the thinner the wire. This is because AWG stems from a measurement that represented the number of times the copper wire was run through a wire machine that reduced the diameter of the wire. Thus 24-gauge wire went through the machine 6 more times than 18-gauge wire.
 
   Search Logic:      User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
   Operating Temperature
 
     Operating temperature is the full-required range of ambient operating temperature.
 
   Search Logic:      User may specify either, both, or neither of the limits in a "From - To" range; when both are specified, matching products will cover entire range. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
Features /Approvals




   EMI or RFI Filter / ESD Shield
 
     The connector has a filter to eliminate electromagnetic interference (EMI), radio frequency interference (RFI), and/or shielding to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) or EMI.
 
   Search Logic:      "Required" and "Must Not Have" criteria limit returned matches as specified. Products with optional attributes will be returned for either choice.
   Integrated Filter / Magnetics
 
     The connector has a filter to protect it against unwanted signals, or magnetics to provide filtering, signal conditioning or isolation.
 
   Search Logic:      "Required" and "Must Not Have" criteria limit returned matches as specified. Products with optional attributes will be returned for either choice.
   Standards / Approvals:      The maximum current or voltage rating for a product given by an approval organization may be different from the suppliers designed maximums. In many such cases, the product can be used safely at an unapproved level. Check with the supplier for specific usage details.
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   CEE
 
     Connector follows CEE configuration standards. CEE is a European standard.
 
   CSA Mark (US, C and US, NRTL/C)
 
     The CSA Mark may appear alone or with indicators. If it appears alone, it means that the product is certified for the Canadian market, to the applicable Canadian standards. If this Mark appears with the indicator "C and US" or "NRTL/C" it means that the product is certified for both the U.S. and Canadian markets, to the applicable U.S. and Canadian standards.
 
   IEC
 
     Connector follows IEC configuration standards. IEC is a European standard.
 
   NEMA
 
     Connector follows NEMA configuration standards.
 
   UL Listing Mark
 
     This Mark, denotes that Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL) has found that samples of the product met UL's safety requirements. These requirements are primarily based on UL's published Standards for Safety.

   Contact Plating      The contacts of a connector are conductive element in a termination assembly that mates with a corresponding element for the purpose of transferring electrical energy. Plating is the overlaying of a thin coating of metal on metallic components to improve conductivity, provide for easy soldering or prevent rusting or corrosion.
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   None
 
     The connector contacts are not plated.
 
   Copper Plating
 
     Connector is available with gold-plated contacts copper.
 
   Gold Plating
 
     Connector is available with gold-plated contacts, for a more reliable electrical connection. Gold-plated contacts are more expensive than silver-plated or copper contacts, and are generally offered as an upgraded connector.
