Overview

The TE Connectivity RJ45 Connector (SKU: 203412-E) is a shielded, single-port, 8-position Ethernet connector designed for reliable data communication in industrial and commercial applications. This vertical, top-entry connector features through-hole solder termination for secure PCB mounting, ensuring optimal signal integrity and EMI protection in demanding environments. The standard-profile design delivers consistent performance for Cat 5 and higher Ethernet cabling, making it ideal for network infrastructure, telecommunications equipment, and industrial automation systems. Key specifications include a shielded housing that connects between the connector and PCB ground, protecting against electromagnetic interference. The connector supports 8-position wiring with gold-plated copper alloy contacts for low-resistance signal transmission. The vertical orientation simplifies PCB assembly, while the top-entry design allows for straightforward cable routing. The through-hole solder termination ensures durable mechanical and electrical connections, suitable for high-vibration or harsh operating conditions. Compatible with standard Ethernet patch cords and cables (Cat 5e and above), this connector meets industrial temperature requirements from -40°C to +80°C (-40°F to +176°F). Its compact design fits standard PCB cutouts, and the shielded construction reduces crosstalk and signal degradation in high-speed data applications. The connector is manufactured in the US by TE Connectivity, a trusted name in connectivity solutions for over 75 years. Applications include Ethernet switches, routers, industrial PCs, PLCs, and data acquisition systems where reliable network connectivity is critical. The connector’s robust construction and compliance with industry standards ensure long-term performance in mission-critical systems.
