1. What are the common types of modular plugs?
The main types include RJ9, RJ11, RJ12, RJ45, and RJ50, with RJ45 being most commonly used for network connections (Ethernet).
-
2. What are RJ45 plugs suitable for?
RJ45 plugs are mainly used in Ethernet networks (Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a, Cat7), and can also be used in industrial automation and serial communications.
-
3. Does the metal contact material of the modular plug affect performance?
Yes, high-quality plugs usually have gold-plated contacts (such as 50 micro-inch gold) to improve corrosion resistance and conductivity and reduce signal loss.
-
4. Can modular plugs be reused?
In general, it is not recommended to reuse crimped plugs because the deformation of the pins may cause poor contact and affect signal transmission.
