A plug is a male connector with metal contacts, while a jack is a female connector that is usually mounted on a device or panel.
-
3. How to choose the right modular plug?
The choice depends on application requirements, such as the number of conductors, transmission rate, shielding requirements (STP/UTP), and durability.
