RJ45 Plug(!) for PCB Mount

[Uwe Bonnes]

Hello,

has anybody seen some RJ45 8/8 Plug (!) for PCB mount. I want to insert
some circuit between some port outlet and the cable. With PCB mount, the
insert would also be hold mechanical to the outlet, while an insert with
two jacks and an additional cable would dangle.

Thanks

You could probably crimp a PCB of the right thickness, with enough plated holes to provide a little
compliance near the pins.

Another option may be to use 1mm pitch ribbon cable, which crimps nicely into an RJ connector, with
a 2mm transition connector onto the PCB outside the plug body, and a finger on the PCB which is
epoxied into the back of the plug.

not sure if I am following you 100%, but is this the sort of thing you
are after:

or are you looking for a male jack on a PCB?

Ouch!
don't think I have ever seen one.

FAIK such a device does not exist. Nevertheless you should be able to make
one yourself. Mount a normal jacket on the board, then take two plugs and
connect them with very short wires so they come back to back. Then use some
good glue and glue them together. If you want to make sure that the
superplug will not be removed, just glue it in the jacket.

I think the neatest solution will be 1mm pitch ribbon cable into a 2mm 8way transition header into
the PCB, finger of PCB into the back of the plug. Insert & crimp cable, crimping the cable+pcb at
the cable strain relief, then backfill with epoxy.
