Modular jacks feature integrated magnetics

The HyperJack shielded RJ45 modjacks feature integrated magnetics, capacitors and resistors, which means mounting fewer components on the motherboard. They are best for high-speed networking applications, including Network Interface Card (NIC) and network PCs that have integrated Ethernet ports on the main boards. The magnetics or wirewound components in these modjacks reduce common mode noise and enable DC insulation of the cable side versus the board side. The capacitors/resistors terminate noise from the non-used pairs. Molex
