<p>To increase the sealing of your RJ45 receptacle, you have two different options :</p>
<ul>
<li>You can use a RJ45 receptacle with a backshell</li>
<li>You can use a RJ45 sealed or hermetic receptacle</li>
</ul>
<p>Increasing the sealing of your receptacle will protect your system against ambient influences. Dust and water or moisture are a constant hazard especially in outdoor applications.</p>

Are there different types of ethernet connectors?
Ethernet connectors come in various types (RJ45, RJ11, RJ14, RJ50) as standardized, but there are also rugged versions designed for specialized environments, such as the ones we offer. These rugged connectors may integrate standardized connectors or use non-standard types like 38999 or µCom
Are there different types of rj45 connectors?
RJ45 (8P8C, 8 positions and 8 electrical contacts) is the standard for Ethernet connections. However, other RJ connectors exist, such as RJ11 (6P2C), RJ14 (6P4C), and RJ50 (10P10C), each with its own dimensions. All RJ45 connectors must adhere to the same form factor specifications, regardless of the manufacturer.
