The RJ point five connector system is the next generation Ethernet link, offering double the amount of standard RJ45 connections in the same real estate. This results in a lower cost per port while maintaining the convenience of a single connector per channel. The RJ point five connector system is made up of the high density receptacle and the cable assembly as well as cable management solutions for single box and rack configurations. Additionally, the cable assembly features an easy-to-use lanyard that will facilitate up to 96 ports on a single line card. Due to the density on the receptacle face, the light from the LEDs is transferred out through the cable boot, bringing the port indicator light closer to the end user. The product family will support Gigabit speeds of Cat 5e cable.
