RJ-45 Connector Modules Set Sights On Internet And LAN Interface Applications

Seven new connector platforms have been added to the PulseJack line of integrated connector modules, including 1XN and 2XN 10/100/1,000Base-TX platforms with integrated LEDs for the high-end server market. The RJ-45 connector modules are for virtually all Internet and LAN interface devices, including gaming platforms, network interface cards, LAN-on-motherboard PCs, and ASDL interface cards, hubs, switches and routers for home or small office uses. The Gigabit 1XN and 2XN series is effective for CAT 5 and CAT 6 fast Ethernet cable connections. They incorporate hybrid circuitry to support simultaneous transmission and reception at a minimum rate of 250 Mbps/pair, meeting or exceeding IEEE802.3ab standards. The connectors meet a minimum of 1,500 VRMS hipot isolation. Standard operating temperatures range from 0°C to 70°C. Model SMT PulseJack connectors are capable of withstanding temperatures to 235°C during IR reflow soldering processes. Pricing starts from $1.00/port/1,000,000 and varies depending on platform style.
