Product details

The TE Connectivity 6116522-3 is a 2-port, right-angle RJ45 jack with an 8p8c (8-position, 8-conductor) interface — the standard keyed footprint for Ethernet patch cables.

Through-hole solder termination anchors the jack for repeated plug/unplug cycles. A board guide aligns the jack during placement.

The shielded shell with EMI finger is the part that actually matters for passing radiated emissions in a metal enclosure. The finger contacts the panel ground before the signal pins seat, which means the shield current from the cable braid has a low-impedance path to chassis ground — that keeps common-mode noise from coupling into the differential pairs. No LED indicators on this variant, so the jack itself is just the signal path; link/activity lights go elsewhere on the board.

Frequently asked questions

Does the 6116522-3 have LED indicators?

No. This variant does not contain an LED — the jack is a straight signal-and-shield path. Link/activity indicators, if needed, must be placed elsewhere on the board.

Is the 6116522-3 suitable for Cat5e or Cat6?

The 8p8c interface and shielded construction are mechanically compatible with Cat5e and Cat6 patch cables. The actual link performance depends on the PCB trace routing, transformer magnetics, and whether the shield termination meets the cable braid impedance — the jack itself does not limit the category rating below what the rest of the channel supports.
