Product details

8P8C RJ45 Jack, Right-Angle, Unshielded

The TE Connectivity 5555164-4 is an 8-position 8-contact (8p8c) modular jack, commonly wired as an RJ45 Ethernet port. It terminates into the PCB through a right-angle, through-hole solder mount with the tab facing down — a layout that keeps the cable exit low and parallel to the board, useful in rack-mount equipment where vertical clearance above the port is tight. The jack is unshielded and carries a Cat3 rating, meaning it is specified for voice-frequency signals and 10BASE-T Ethernet at up to 16 MHz. For 100BASE-TX or 1000BASE-T applications, a Cat5e or higher rated jack would be required.

The Cat3 performance level limits this jack to applications where the channel bandwidth does not exceed 16 MHz. In practice, that covers analog telephone lines, RS-232 over RJ45, and 10BASE-T Ethernet.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 5555164-4 and what is the lead time?

Availability and current lead time are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for your target quantity.

Does 5555164-4 have an LED?

No, this jack does not contain an LED. The LED Color field is listed as 'Does Not Contain LED'.

What is the pinout of 5555164-4?

The 5555164-4 is an 8p8c modular jack. The pinout follows the standard RJ45 wiring scheme — pins 1 through 8 correspond to the T568A or T568B wiring conventions. The tab-down orientation means pin 1 is typically on the left when viewing the mating face with the tab at the bottom.
