RJ45 connectors are the kind that are used for Ethernet jacks, but they make great general purpose connectors when you need a lot of conductors. This is a small PCB that brings out the pins of the RJ45 connector to an in-line 0.1″ footprint. Use with break-away headers for breadboarding or create your own RJ45 cable. Check the related items for Ethernet cable and connectors to go with it!
We used these connectors extensively in the Sound Squid demo!
Dimensions: 0.7×0.8″
Note: This is the PCB only – You can get the RJ45 connector in the related items below!

useful little board – pity that RJ45 sockets are not already breadboard friendly

Holds up to repeated soldering and desoldering after I got things wrong the first time (and, ahem, the second time too). It also has solder pads on both sides of the board, which is pretty handy.

I purchased a few of these to join two circuits with RJ-45 network cable – the pin header locations are breadboard friendly, and easy to solder.
