Description
RJ45-6 refers to a 6-position version of an RJ-type modular connector. While the standard RJ45 used in Ethernet networking is an 8P8C (8-position, 8-contact) connector, RJ45-6 typically describes a 6-position modular plug or jack (often 6P6C or similar). It is commonly used in telephone, low-voltage communication, or control signal applications rather than standard Ethernet networking.
Features:
-
6 positions (may have 2, 4, or 6 contacts depending on configuration)
-
Modular plug and jack design
-
Typically used for telephone lines or low-voltage data
-
Compatible with modular crimping tools for 6-position connectors
-
Smaller contact count than standard 8P8C Ethernet connectors
-
Used with flat or round modular cables
