Overview
The Keystone 1601 is a vertical-mount, non-insulated test jack designed for standard 0.080-inch (2.03mm) diameter phone tip plugs. It features a rugged machined brass construction with a tin-plated finish, ensuring low contact resistance and reliable performance in test and measurement applications. This component is typically used for providing test points on printed circuit boards or within chassis assemblies.
Why Choose This Part
The jack's simple, non-insulated design allows for direct chassis grounding or custom insulation configurations. Its robust brass construction provides superior mechanical durability compared to plastic-bodied connectors, maintaining consistent spring tension over thousands of insertion cycles.
