If you need to connect an RJ-45 cable (a.k.a Ethernet) to a board that doesn't have an Ethernet jack - this adapter will come in very handy! No soldering required - Just flick up the little levers and slide in your stranded or solid-core wire. Note that these aren't recommended for high speed Ethernet traffic, especially long term, for basic power/data distribution, RJ-45's are great!
This is an Ethernet (RJ-45) Female Socket to Terminal Spring Block Adapter. There is a standard RJ-45 Ethernet socket on one end and a spring terminal block on the other.
Comes as one fully assembled breakout.
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- breakout
- A breakout board carries a small or fine-pitched component and brings its connections out to standard, breadboard- and header-friendly pins. Describing a part as a breakout means it can be wired into a project without soldering directly to the component's tiny contacts.
- Terminal block
- A terminal block is a connector that joins wires together in a neat, removable, or serviceable way, usually clamping each wire under a screw or spring instead of soldering. It makes it easier to connect, change, or service wiring without permanent joints.
