Overview
This Product Specification defines the general use and performance parameters for Amphenol’s
MRJ series of connector.
Availability: Right angle PCB tail termination with 8 or 10 positions, LED options, EMI ferrite
filtering and PCB options (with matching RJ connector, cable header, terminal block or for hand
wiring). Vertical PCB tail termination with 8 positions and LED options. Both termination styles
have dust covers for enhanced mating area protection. A clear rubber boot for use with standard
plugs is also available.
Usage
The connector system is designed to provide a standard RJ45 interface, ideal for harsh
environments where Ethernet/IP protocol is used. Protection is provided for IP67 applications per
IEC 60529 specification. Data rates conform to 10BaseT or 100BaseT Ethernet.
Applications
Intended for use in applications such as:
Medical equipment
ATM machines
Lottery terminals & slot
machines
GPS positioning equipment
Military vehicles, radios, computers
Test equipment
Mobile communication systems
Traffic control & monitoring systems
