From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

ARJ45 (Augmented Registered Jack 45) is an electronic connector for very high speed applications such as Class FA installations as defined by the standard ISO/IEC 11801 and 10, 40 and 100 Gigabit Ethernet transmission copper cabling. ARJ45 is an international standard IEC 61076-3-110[1].

The connector operates in the frequency spectra between 600 MHz to 5 GHz with twisted shielded pair and twinax cables. ARJ45 utilizes an internal system of Faraday cages to reduce cross talk to 35 dB or better at 5 GHz. The ARJ45 performance up to 1000 MHz corresponds to category 7A connecting hardware.

ARJ45 HS is an 8-contact connectors and ARJ45 HD is a 12-contact connector.

Unshielded and shielded twisted pair cabling standards
  • Cat 1: Currently unrecognized by TIA/EIA. Previously used for POTS telephone communications, ISDN and doorbell wiring.
  • Cat 2: Currently unrecognized by TIA/EIA. Previously was frequently used on 4 Mbit/s token ring networks.
  • Cat 3: Currently defined in TIA/EIA-568-B, used for data networks using frequencies up to 16 MHz. Historically popular for 10 Mbit/s Ethernet networks.
  • Cat 4: Currently unrecognized by TIA/EIA. Defined up to 20 MHz, and was frequently used on 16 Mbit/s token ring networks.
  • Cat 5: Currently unrecognized by TIA/EIA. Defined up to 100 MHz, and was frequently used on 100 Mbit/s Ethernet networks. May be unsuitable for 1000BASE-T gigabit ethernet.
  • Cat 5e: Currently defined in TIA/EIA-568-B. Defined up to 100 MHz, and is frequently used for both 100 Mbit/s and 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet networks.
  • Cat 6: Currently defined in TIA/EIA-568-B. Defined up to 250 MHz, more than double category 5 and 5e.
  • Cat 6a: Currently defined in ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-B.2-10. Defined up to 500 MHz, double that of category 6. Suitable for 10GBase-T.
  • Cat 7: An informal name applied to ISO/IEC 11801 Class F cabling. Defined up to 600 MHz. This standard specifies four individually-shielded pairs (STP) inside an overall shield.
  • Cat 7a: An informal name applied to Amendment 1 of ISO/IEC 11801 Class F cabling. Defined up to 1000 MHz.

The ARJ45 is Bel Stewart’s new family of connectors for Category 7 and Category 7a premise wiring systems deployed in 10G Ethernet and higher speed data transmission environments. This connector family consists of a cable-mounted plug and a single-port, PCB-mounted jack designed to meet Category 7 performance standards up to 600MHz as defined by the IEC60603-7-7. These products will also meet proposed Category 7a specifications increasing performance requirements up to 1000MHz. Additionally, the ARJ45 can be used as a high speed connector replacement for closed loop applications currently using less economical connector types.

The 'A' in ARJ45 stands for 'Augmented' meaning...'Greater than before', 'amplified' or simply 'improved'. The overall dimensions remain the same as the traditional RJ45 making it the ideal data connector of choice in high density patch panel applications.

Bel Stewart’s ARJ45 connector systems provide a competitive advantage in that they are built on the proven reliability of standard RJ45 interface mechanics which have been enhanced to support increased Category 7a data speeds. In addition, the ARJ45TM connectors are interface-compatible with the Nexans GG45 Category 7 connector system. This makes the ARJ45 / GG45 connector system a proven intermatable connector solution for Category 7 and Category 7a that is commercially available today from two independent manufacturing sources.
