Spec check before you order
- Connector: RJ45, 8P8C, shielded
- Designed for: Cat6A and 10-Gigabit Ethernet
- Cable: round, solid-conductor; supports shielded and unshielded cabling
- Grounding: external grounding connection, to help maintain shield continuity when used with appropriately installed shielded cable
- Construction: two-piece connector body and liner, with three-prong contacts
Planning notes
Because one plug supports both shielded and unshielded cable, a project that mixes the two can keep a single connector on the parts list. The liner organises the conductors during assembly, which helps when you are working through a run of terminations.
Use it with compatible cable and the appropriate crimping tool, and put the tool on the same requisition as the connectors.
