DESCRIPTION

The 5569257-1 is a stacked modular jack connector featuring a 2×4 port configuration with 8 positions and 8 contacts per port, designed for high-density networking installations. This shielded connector delivers Category 5 performance with Near End Crosstalk (NEXT) exceeding -40 dB on all pair combinations at 100 MHz per EIA/TIA 568A standards, and provides shielding effectiveness of 20 dB minimum across 10 to 200 MHz. The connector features insert-molded contacts with selectively deposited gold plating, operates over a temperature range of -40°C to +70°C, and supports 750 mating cycles with a maximum mating force of 5 lbs. It includes PCB ground path options and meets FCC Part 68 regulations, UL certification (File No. E81956), and CSA certification (File No. LR 7189A). The low-profile design with narrow width enables more ports to be packed into less space, making it ideal for telecommunications equipment, data centers, and networking infrastructure where compact, reliable multi-port connectivity is required.
