OBJECTIVE
This specification defines the performance, test, quality and reliability of a family of modular telephone
connectors.
2.
SCOPE
This specification defines requirements for Receptacles of Modular Telephone connectors intended for
use in private and public network installations and equipment. The receptacles specified herein can
comprise single or multiport configurations (Gang Jacks), shielded and unshielded designs, filtered and
unfiltered. Receptacles supplied according to this specification can be classified as category 3, 4 and 5
assemblies. This specification also covers the Modular Jacks and Gang Jacks that do not require
category classification. The mating plug is described in this specification only to the extent necessary to
define performance of the mated connector parts: to this extent the quality of a mating plug shall conform
to this document.
