Introduction
When boards are dense and emissions margins are tight, a RJ45 Single Port Shielded Right-Angle DIP 8P8C modular jack delivers mechanical strength, solder reliability, and signal integrity. Part RJ45-801-ABK8AS02L-RH is a shielded RJ45 jack with right-angle RJ45 THT tails—ideal for routers, gateways, printers, industrial Ethernet nodes, and IP cameras. Because this is a non-magnetics connector, designers have the freedom to place discrete magnetics or use an external MagJack module best suited to their PHY, isolation, and PoE strategy. That flexibility is often the difference between passing EMC on the first try and burning time in re-spins.
What this connector is (and why it matters)
This board-mount RJ45 8P8C receptacle implements a classic Right-Angle DIP (through-hole) footprint that wave-solders cleanly and withstands mechanical stress from repeated insertions. The nickel-plated shield wraps the housing to reduce common-mode noise and provide a reliable chassis ground path. Its 1×1 port with tab-up latch fits standard bezels and keeps the cable bend radius tidy in cramped enclosures. As part of our precision electronic connectors lineup, this RJ45 Single Port Shielded Right-Angle DIP maintains consistent geometry and plating thickness so your Ethernet interface keeps its signal integrity over time—even in environments with vibration or ESD hits.

Design notes for layout & assembly
- Hole pattern & pitch: Maintain 1.02 mm pitch; use Ø0.90 mm for tails and Ø0.70 mm for shield stakes to ensure consistent wave fillets. These dimensions are tuned for strong joints on the right-angle RJ45 THT interface and help control coplanarity across the 8-position row.
- Keepout & bezel fit: Front bezel opening ~16.20 mm; allow clearance around the shield can to prevent scraping during assembly. The compact face ensures the RJ45 Single Port Shielded Right-Angle DIP seats repeatably in multi-port panels.
- Grounding strategy: Stitch the shield stakes to chassis/system ground with short, low-inductance paths. This maximizes EMI suppression and preserves Ethernet signal integrity, especially near clock harmonics.
- Thermal profile: Optimized for wave solder; verify preheat and conveyor settings to protect the PA9T housing while achieving bright, void-free fillets on the tin-plated tails.
- Orientation: Right-Angle DIP orientation with tab-up latch aligns well with standard cutouts and cable management inside compact chassis.
Where it fits best
Networking (routers, switches, gateways, set-top boxes) • Industrial Ethernet I/O & PLC modules • Office/Imaging (printers/MFPs) • Security (IP cameras/NVRs). In each case, the shielded RJ45 jack format helps teams hit emissions targets without over-engineering the enclosure. For harsh sites, pairing this 8P8C modular jack with robust ESD protection and well-routed return paths further hardens the link.
