Product Description
The RJ45 Cat6 Pass-Through Shielded Connector is an 8P8C modular plug for terminating Cat6 Ethernet cable in structured cabling work, supplied in packs of 100.
Why pass-through
Conductors extend fully through the front of the connector before crimping, so installers can check wire order visually before committing the crimp — useful on multi-point jobs where a mis-wired plug means a re-run.
Key specs
- Format: 8P8C modular plug, standard Ethernet termination
- Housing: shielded metal, for improved protection against EMI and signal noise
- Cable compatibility: Cat6, both solid and stranded conductors
- Tooling: compatible with standard RJ45 crimping tools; pass-through crimping tools trim the excess wire during termination
- Pack size: 100pcs
Where it's used
Suited to Ethernet networking, CCTV IP camera runs, and general structured cabling and telecoms wiring where a reliable, verifiable termination is needed on site.
Because the design is pass-through, it works with either standard RJ45 crimpers or dedicated pass-through crimpers — the latter trim the protruding conductor ends as part of the crimp cycle, the former still seat and terminate the plug on the cable.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do these need a special crimping tool?
No — they are compatible with standard RJ45 crimping tools, though pass-through crimpers will also trim the excess wire during termination.
Can these be used with stranded Cat6 cable?
Yes, they suit both solid and stranded Cat6 conductors.
Are these connectors shielded?
Yes, they have a shielded metal housing for improved protection against EMI and signal noise.
What is the pass-through design for?
It lets conductors extend through the front of the connector so installers can verify wire order before crimping.
