The multi-port or ganged modular jacks will save space and room on customers’ PCB. Instead of using two single port connectors for example, the customer can choose to use a 1 x 2 multi-port configuration. Multi-port configurations are also available with a mix of jack type – for example there are connectors available that feature one RJ11 port and one RJ45 port in one 1 x 2 multi-port configuration. This provides additional flexibility to those customer applications that require two types of modular jacks in the same space.
