42878-6362 datasheet pdf

Description

42878-6362 is a low-profile vertical modular jack connector from Molex, designed for PCB mounting with a 1.27 mm (0.050″) pitch. It supports a 6-position, 4-contact (6P4C) configuration, commonly used in telecom and data interfaces. The connector features selective gold and tin plating for reliable signal integrity and durability, and is optimized for compact, flush-mounted designs.

Features

  • 6P4C (6 positions, 4 contacts) modular jack configuration
  • Low-profile vertical PCB mounting
  • 1.27 mm (0.050″) contact pitch
  • Selective gold plating on contacts for improved conductivity and wear resistance
  • Tin-plated terminals for reliable soldering
  • Flush mount, flangeless design for compact integration
  • Supports standard modular plug interfaces (RJ-type)
  • Designed for 2 PCB thickness mounting compatibility
