Modular (RJ) & Telecom Connectors
KSM stock and supply a variety of RJ (registered jack) modular and telecoms connectors. Originally designed for telephone wiring, these connectors are now used for a number of purposes. They are probably best known for their use in twisted-pair Ethernet (Cat5e, Cat6 etc), telephone handsets and router cables.
RJ Connectors
A range of modular connectors for telecoms and Ethernet applications. For general reference we use the most common naming terminology for each connector, though this may be strictly inaccurate. If in doubt we recommend referring to the connectors using the number of positions and contacts, e.g. 8P8C for an RJ45 connector.
