Keyed tab direction is down, preventing incorrect insertion of the mating plug.
The board lock is a metal retention feature that holds the jack flush to the PCB during reflow or wave soldering and provides mechanical resistance to the plug insertion and cable tug forces. The keyed tab direction (Down,) ensures the RJ45 plug latches in the correct orientation — a non-negotiable detail for assembly jig setup.
5569118-1 is unshielded. For applications requiring EMI protection, a shielded variant from the same series would be needed.
Yes, 5569118-1 includes a board lock for mechanical retention during soldering and vibration resistance.
