Shielded RJ45 Jack, 8p8c, Right-Angle Through-Hole
The TE Connectivity 1-406541-4 is an 8-position 8-contact (8p8c) RJ45 jack — the standard Ethernet connector for Cat5 cabling. It comes shielded with an EMI finger on the shell, which bleeds common-mode noise from the cable shield to the chassis ground before it reaches the signal pairs.
Shielding and Contact Finish
The EMI finger on the shield makes this jack suitable for applications where conducted or radiated noise on the cable shield must be drained to the PCB ground plane — typical for industrial Ethernet, factory-floor switches, and control panels near variable-frequency drives. The Cat5 rating means the jack is characterized for 100 MHz signal paths, adequate for 10/100BASE-T and some 1000BASE-T implementations.
No LED indicators on this variant — the LED Color entry confirms it does not contain an LED. The tab direction is Up, meaning the latch on the mating RJ45 plug engages on the top side of the jack.
