Vertical RJ45 Jack, 8P8C, Unshielded
It sits in the 338360 base series as the unshielded variant, carrying a Cat3 rating that limits its data-rate ceiling to 10BASE-T and voice applications — not a candidate for modern Gigabit Ethernet or PoE runs.
Board Lock and Panel Stops for PCB Retention
Two mechanical features save you assembly grief: the board lock anchors the jack into the plated through-hole during wave solder, resisting the pushback from the mating plug insertion, and the panel stops set a consistent standoff height so the jack face sits flush against a bezel or front panel. No LED indicators — the housing is plain PBT, and the single-row, single-port layout keeps the footprint compact.
Cat3 Rating and Unshielded Design — What It Means
The Cat3 rating means this jack is specified for voice-grade twisted-pair up to 16 MHz — fine for analog phone lines, RS-232 over twisted-pair, or 10BASE-T Ethernet in a pinch, but it will not pass Cat5e or Cat6 certification. The unshielded construction (no metal shell, no ground tabs) keeps cost and insertion force low, but it also means no EMI containment at the connector face. If your application needs shielding against radiated noise, the 338360-2 shielded variant is the direct alternative — same footprint, same 8P8C layout, same board lock, but with a metal shield that grounds through the PCB.
