The 2-406549-9 is an 8p8c (RJ45, Ethernet) jack from TE Connectivity, Cat5 rated, with a shielded shell and EMI finger for noise containment in industrial Ethernet runs.
The Cat5 rating limits the jack to 100 MHz signal bandwidth — adequate for 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T in existing structured cabling, but not for Cat6a or higher frequencies.
