Technical change to OMNIMATE Data RJ45 jacks,
tinned shield solder pins
Dear Madam or Sir,
the below listed articles will be supplied in a modified revision. Please pass this product information on to your
employees and, if needed, to your customers. All modifications are performed for reasons of product
improvements.

3. Reason for change
The metal shields of RJ45 jacks are usually nickel-plated. Base material: Copper alloy and surface
material: 0.76-2.03μm nickel.
- Properties of nickel surface: Resistant against moisture, oxygen and weak acids. Largely insensitive to
fingerprints.
50% - 70% of the shield solder pin of shielded RJ45 jacks (OMNIMATE® Data) for the wave / reflow
soldering process (THT / THR) will be selectively dip-tinned in the manufacturing process.
50% - 70% des Schirm-Lötstiftes geschirmten RJ45 Buchsen (OMNIMATE® Data) für den Wellen- /
Reflowlötprozess (THT/THR) werden im Fertigungsprozess selektiv tauchverzinnt.
Due to the tinned surface, a better wetting property will be achieved in the soldering area, which leads to
an optimal soldering result, even at a lower limit temperature. However, the above-mentioned properties
for the remaining metal shield surface are completely unchanged.
