The 8-core, 1-row layout mates with standard RJ45 plugs, and the shielded housing with EMI finger bleeds common-mode noise before it reaches the PHY. ## What the 13.65mm Height Means for Your Enclosure That dimension sets the minimum clearance inside the enclosure lid or bezel. The tab direction is down, meaning the latching tab on the mating RJ45 plug faces the PCB when seated. Housing material is Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP), which holds dimensional stability through reflow and resists the flux and wash chemicals used in through-hole solder processes. The brass shield material provides the EMI containment; the EMI finger contacts the panel cutout or chassis ground plane to complete the shield path. ## No LED — Plan for External Indicators This jack does not contain an integrated LED. Link/activity and speed indication must come from an external LED on the board or a separate panel-mount indicator. The LED Color field confirms \"Does Not Contain LED\" — no empty lens, no light pipe to design around.","metaTitle":"TE 2301994-6 RJ45 Jack, 1-Port, 1000 Base-T, Shielded","metaDescription":"TE 2301994-6 RJ45 jack, 1-port, 8 cores, 90° right-angle, shielded with EMI finger, board lock, 30µin gold, -40°C~85°C, ROHS3.
