FiddlLink
High signal integrity CAT6 & Gigabit RJ45 stacked components with integrated dual USB ports, optimized for space-constrained PCB interfaces in Lombardy's automated grids.
Milan is not just Italy’s economic capital; it is the core driving force of the Lombardy region, which represents one of Europe's densest concentrations of advanced manufacturing, electronic hardware development, and railway engineering. The rapid deployment of smart factory applications, Internet of Things (IoT) edge systems, and high-frequency communication infrastructure demands high-quality connector designs.
The integration of RJ45 connectors with USB stacked ports has become critical for local original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). These hybrid interfaces allow automation engineers to route Gigabit Ethernet lines alongside legacy or high-speed USB data signals on a single, EMI-shielded PCB block. By eliminating separate cable assemblies, Milanese developers achieve significant space reductions inside compact DIN-rail controllers, robotics terminal interfaces, and high-voltage power monitoring equipment.
FiddlLink's RJ45 + USB stacked connectors save up to 45% of board space compared to discrete layouts, incorporating magnetic filtering directly within the metal shielding structure.
Compliance Focus: Designed to meet CE, RoHS, and REACH standards required across Italian and EU electronic manufacturing installations.

In highly electrified environments, such as the manufacturing plants in Milan, Monza, and Bergamo, electromagnetic interference (EMI) is a persistent challenge. High-power motors, contactors, and variable frequency drives (VFDs) generate high amounts of transient noise. The integrated RJ45 with USB modules supplied by FiddlLink feature heavy-duty brass shielding cases with tin plating, paired with integrated high-efficiency magnetics. This guarantees over 15dB of return loss at high frequencies and limits adjacent channel crosstalk. The grounding tabs on our connector housings ensure static charges are dissipated directly into the chassis ground rather than damaging sensitive PCB controllers.
Backed by 12 years of industry experience, 8 years of global export proficiency, and a robust R&D network.
FiddlLink operates a highly efficient manufacturing setup.
