Modular jacks with integrated magnetics have extended operating temperature

4 October 2006 Interconnection

Many industrial designs require an extended operating temperature range, and for such demanding applications Erni provides modular jacks that operate from -40 to 85°C.

Modular jack connectors have been used in the telecoms and Ethernet industry for many years because of their simplicity and reliability. Whether integrated in a simple telephone system, or in a gigabit application, modular jacks are the standard for network connections.

The high temperature rated modular jacks, with integrated magnetics for 10/100 Ethernet, are available in right-angle configurations (eg, ganged 1 x 2, 1 x 4 and single port); and as vertical single-port variants. Single-port modular jacks, with integrated magnetics, have effective grounding shields with panel flanges on top and on both sides. All of these jacks meet IEC60603-7 performance requirements.

Configuration choices

The 10/100 magnetics are available in three configurations: with resistors on unused pairs but without internal capacitor, with resistors on unused pairs and internal capacitor, or with full 'Bob Smith termination'. Erni modular jack products, with integrated magnetics, are available for all Ethernet data rates.

These ModJacks meet FCC and IEEE 802.3 requirements for voltage isolation and performance. They are offered in single port, multiport ganged, vertical and tab-up configurations. Erni also offers versions with different-coloured LEDs.
