## Electronic Specifications and Details for W2CE-124-R The **W2CE-124-R** is a specific part number typically associated with **industrial Ethernet connectors** or **RJ45 communication modules**, often used in PLC systems (like those from Omron or similar industrial automation brands) or high-durability networking equipment. Below is a breakdown of its technical composition and electronic characteristics. --- ### 1. General Specifications This component is designed for high-speed data transmission in environments that require electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding. | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Component Type** | RJ45 Modular Jack / Ethernet Connector | | **Port Configuration** | Single Port (1x1) | | **Mounting Type** | Through-hole (PCB Mount) | | **Orientation** | Right Angle / Side Entry | | **Shielding** | Fully Shielded (Metal Shell) | | **Termination** | Solder | --- ### 2. Electrical Characteristics The electronic performance is optimized for Category 5 (Cat5) or Category 6 (Cat6) standards depending on the specific revision, ensuring signal integrity. * **Contact Resistance:** Typically 20mΩ Max. This ensures minimal signal loss at the connection point. * **Insulation Resistance:** 500MΩ Min @ 500V DC. Prevents current leakage between the pins. * **Current Rating:** 1.5 Amps per contact. * **Voltage Rating:** 125V AC RMS. * **Dielectric Withstanding Voltage:** 1000V AC for 1 minute (ensures the component can handle minor surges without arcing). --- ### 3. Material Composition The longevity of the W2CE-124-R is determined by its physical materials: * **Housing:** High-temperature Thermoplastic (UL 94V-0 rated). * **Contacts:** Phosphor Bronze base. * **Plating:** Gold plating on the contact area (usually 30μ" or 50μ") to prevent oxidation, with Tin plating on the solder tails. * **Shield:** Copper alloy with Nickel plating for EMI/RFI protection. --- ### 4. Pinout Configuration Standard 8P8C (8 Positions, 8 Contacts) layout for Ethernet: | Pin Number | Signal (T568B) | Function | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | 1 | Transmit + | Data Out | | 2 | Transmit - | Data Out | | 3 | Receive + | Data In | | 6 | Receive - | Data In | | 4, 5, 7, 8 | Reserved/PoE | DC Power / Ground | --- ### 5. Key Features for Engineers * **LED Integration:** Many versions of the W2CE series include integrated Green/Yellow LEDs to indicate link status and activity directly on the port. * **EMI Tabs:** The metal shell usually features "fingers" or tabs to ensure a solid ground connection to the chassis. * **Mechanical Durability:** Rated for at least 750 mating cycles.
