Panel-Mount RJ45 Jack for Field-Terminated Ethernet
It terminates via barrel terminals — solder-cup or screw-clamp style lugs that accept prepared wire ends — making it a practical choice for field-installed or MRO Ethernet connections where a PCB footprint isn't available.
Mounting and Termination — What the Panel Cutout Needs
This is a panel-mount jack, not a PCB-mount — the barrel terminals exit the rear and accept wire directly, so the installation workflow is: prepare the panel cutout, snap the jack in (the toolless panel lock holds it), then terminate the wires to the barrel terminals. The tab direction is user-selectable, meaning the locking tab on the RJ45 plug can face up or down depending on how you orient the jack in the cutout — a detail that matters when the cable route has a preferred bend radius. The single-port, single-row layout keeps the panel footprint compact. Because it is unshielded, there is no ground plane or shield drain to bond — the signal path is purely the twisted-pair wires terminated to the barrel lugs.
