Right-Angle 6p4c Jack for Board-Edge Termination
The TE Connectivity 1734479-4 is a 6p4c (RJ11, RJ14) modular jack in a right-angle, through-hole mounting configuration. It sits in the TE modular jack family as a 2-port, single-row, unshielded jack with gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts.
The 6p4c configuration means six contact positions with four wired — standard for RJ11 and RJ14 telephone or low-speed data links. The jack mates with any 6-position modular plug (RJ11/RJ12/RJ14) with the same 4-conductor wiring. The single-row contact layout keeps the PCB footprint narrow, suited for dense line-card or wall-plate designs. The Cat3 rating confirms the jack is specified for voice and 10BASE-T Ethernet signaling, not for high-frequency data beyond 16 MHz.
The board lock feature — a pair of plastic or metal posts that snap into plated through-holes — secures the part during soldering and adds mechanical retention against plug insertion and removal forces. The housing is glass-filled PA46 (Nylon 4/6), which handles the reflow or wave-solder thermal profile without distortion.
