Product details

6P6C Right-Angle Modular Jack for Cat3 Voice and Data

The TE Connectivity 5520470-3 is a 6-position 6-contact (6P6C) modular jack, wired for RJ11, RJ12, RJ14, and RJ25 applications. The unshielded housing and Cat3 rating place it in voice-grade telephone, legacy data (10BASE-T), and low-frequency signal paths, not high-speed Ethernet.

Rated Cat3, this jack is specified for signal frequencies up to 16 MHz — the standard for voice and 10BASE-T Ethernet. It is not Cat5 or Cat5e rated, so it will not support 100BASE-TX or higher data rates. For a telephone line, modem, or low-speed control signal, the Cat3 rating is sufficient; for a data network drop, select a Cat5e or Cat6 jack instead.

Gold Plating and Contact Reliability

No official replacement or cross-reference has been issued by TE Connectivity.

Frequently asked questions

Does 5520470-3 have an LED?

No, the 5520470-3 does not contain an LED. It is a plain modular jack with no integrated status indicators.

What is the closest alternative to 5520470-3?

The 5555165-5 is a mechanically identical jack with the same gold plating, board locks, and Cat3 rating, but wired 6P2C (two contacts) instead of 6P6C. For a six-contact requirement, the 5520470-3 is the correct part; for a two-contact single-line phone application, the 5555165-5 is a cost-effective alternative.
