The 8-position, 1-row layout matches standard Ethernet cabling pinouts (T568A/B). Shielding is a brass shell with an integrated EMI finger. Gold-plated contacts (30.0 µin) on a copper-alloy base. LCP holds dimensional stability through reflow and resists the flux and wash chemicals used in board assembly. ## What the Shielding and LED Tell You About Fit The EMI finger on this jack is a spring contact that bears against the panel cutout, creating a bond between the connector shield and chassis ground. The green-yellow bicolor LED is integrated into the jack body. Typical wiring: green for link, yellow for activity. The LED pins are separate from the signal cores — they need their own current-limiting resistors on the board, and the forward voltage of the LED determines the resistor value. No integrated magnetics in this part — the PHY-side magnetics (transformer, common-mode choke) are on the board, not inside the connector. Tab direction is down, meaning the RJ45 plug's latch faces the PCB when mated. That orientation is standard for most PCB-mounted jacks — the latch is accessible from the top of the enclosure, and the cable strain relief pulls against the board lock, not the solder joints.","metaTitle":"TE Connectivity 1-2301994-0 RJ45 Jack, 1 Port, 1000 Base-T","metaDescription":"TE 1-2301994-0 RJ45 jack, 1 port, shielded with EMI finger, right-angle through-hole, rated for 10/100/1000 Base-T and AutoMDIX.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":"RoHS Compliant","productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Modular / RJ Connectors"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"TE Connectivity AMP Connectors","Series":"-","Package":"Tape & Reel (TR) Cut Tape (CT)","Features":"Board Lock","LED Color":"Green - Yellow","Shielding":"Shielded, EMI Finger","Orientation":"90° Angle (Right)","Termination":"Solder","Applications":"10/100/1000 Base-T, AutoMDIX","Mounting Type":"Through Hole","Tab Direction":"Down","Connector Type":"RJ45","Contact Finish":"Gold","Number of Rows":"1","Product Status":"Active","Number of Ports":"1","Shield Material":"Brass","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Contact Material":"Copper Alloy","Housing Material":"Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP)","Height Above Board":"0.537\\\" (13.65mm)","Base Product Number":"2301994","Operating Temperature":"-40°C ~ 85°C","Contact Finish Thickness":"30.0µin (0.76µm)","Number of Cores per Jack":"8"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$11.4600","stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":[{"qty":1,"price":"$11.46000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10,"price":"$10.36500","currency":"USD"},{"qty":25,"price":"$10.09120","currency":"USD"},{"qty":80,"price":"$9.70725","currency":"USD"},{"qty":160,"price":"$8.99425","currency":"USD"},{"qty":400,"price":"$8.93940","currency":"USD"},{"qty":560,"price":"$8.61036","currency":"USD"}]},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/a025f94d3056b2887dd152d8e2036a06.pdf","sourceUrl":null},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"Is 1-2301994-0 compatible with 1000Base-T?","answer":"Yes, the 1-2301994-0 is rated for 10/100/1000 Base-T and AutoMDIX, so it supports Gigabit Ethernet as well as 10 and 100 Mbps speeds with automatic crossover detection."},{"question":"Does 1-2301994-0 include integrated magnetics?","answer":"No, the 1-2301994-0 does not include integrated magnetics.

CAT6 is backward-compatible with 1000 Base-T, so the jack will work with a CAT6 cable and maintain the link speed. The limiting factor is the board-side magnetics and trace routing, not the connector itself."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/te-connectivity-amp-connectors/1-2301994-0","citationPolicyUrl":"https://icsourcedirect.com/llms.txt","source":"IC Source Direct","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"IC Source Direct\" and link https://icsourcedirect.com/te-connectivity-amp-connectors/1-2301994-0 when reusing this data.
