Cat5 Pass Through RJ45 Connector

Received these rj45 connectors and on 1st appearance was quite sceptical of the quality and precision. Made a test 1m cat5e flylead and my doubts were put to rest. Will be back for more! Update, made off a dozen ends a few days later and zero fails!

Easy to fit , you will need the pass through crimping tool that cuts the tails off as you crimp , ideal , quick and easy

Excellent for stranded cat5e but not suitable for real solid copper (not CCA). I appreciate plugs shouldn't terminate solid, but on occasion there is a genuine need (Ceiling AP that won't flex the cable)

A lot easier than the closed end connectors. Ethernet connection to CCTV camera at the front of the garden had got wet, needed to replace the connector on the fixed run (stapled to fencing about five foot up). Replaced the connector three times with a 'standard' RJ45 and each time was failing on one or two lines. Used one of these - right first time. It helps that: You can push the cable tight into the connector - so that the cable grip does grip the outer sheath. With a closed end connector this is a bit hit & miss. You can easily check that the wires are in the right order - as they poke out of the end. Yes you can do this with a 'standard' transparent connector, but not as obvious. Also helps, would say essential, to have a proper crimping tool and a cable tester - mine is two part, plug into each end of the cable, 8 LED lights show connection on each wire and sequence at both ends.

Used these with a 'Klein Tools Pass-Thru Wire Crimper'. Definitely a learning curve compared to terminating into a keystone jack however these are good quality. No complaints.

They look pretty close to the ones made by Ideal but cost a fraction of the price and work perfectly AAA+

Along with a good crimping tool these pass through connectors work very well indeed. Easy to use and 100% good solid connections so far. Would prefer smaller packages at a cheaper price as pack purchased for a specific home job and the surplus probably won’t be used.

This is a pack of 50 RJ45 connectors, as used for Ethernet cables. You'll need an Ethernet crimp tool to fit them! As such plugs go, these are pretty much as simple as they get - a single piece construction which you need to poke the 8 inner wires into in the correct order. (Some plugs have separate inners which you fit the inner wires into before assembly, which can make life slightly easier, but it really doesn't make a huge difference.) The included instructions are reasonably straightforward and helpful, and it was no more fiddly than usual to wire an Ethernet cable with one of these plugs, given the constraints of my ageing eyesight. The socket retention clips on these plugs feel quite strong, which is a bonus - they can be quite fragile on some plugs. At 20p a plug, these are actually not that cheap - you can get similar quality plugs on eBay in similar bulk for less than 5p each. I'm not sure these justify being any more expensive, but they're fine for what they are, if a bit pricey.

Alles ok, einfach zu verarbeiten, aber aufpassen welchen Aderquerschnitt das verwendete Kabel hat. Cat 5,5e,6,7 kann mit allen möglichen Querschnitten ausgeführt sein (z.B. Beschriftung mit Cat7 4x2xAWG26 bis AWG23, oder verified for Gigabit, oder UTP für 2,5Gbit, oder gar keine AWG Angabe). Bei zu dünnen Adern kommt es dann zu fehlerhaften Kontaktstellen die ev. nicht sofort auffallen (1G/2,5G braucht 4 Paare(1-2,3-6,4-5,7-8), 100M nur 2 (1-2,3-6) Wenn dann einzelne(falsche) Adern fehlen funktioniert der Link, aber die Bandbreite ist beschränkt. Das liegt aber nicht am Produkt, sondern am Anwender.

Gezien de prijs had ik kwaliteit verwacht. Ik constateer twee problemen: 1. De trekontlasting werkt niet goed, de mantel van een kwalitatief goede cat5e UTP kabel gaat gemakkelijk los. Ik heb goedkopere RJ45 connectoren aan dezelfde kabel gezet, daar werkt de trekontlasting veel beter. 2. In de product omschrijving staat dat de contacten volledig verguld zijn. Dit is niet het geval, alleen op het vlakje wat contact maakt in de connector zit een dun laagje goud. De rest, en het deel wat contact maakt met de aders, is vernikkeld of vertind.

Lyckas klämma sönder dom, utan att få kontakt med pinsen.. Tog flera försök att klämma 1 kabel. Kanske jag som gör något fel, men tittar nog på annan tillverkare nästa gång.

Good product, well packed and fast shipment.

A diferencia de otros todo perfecto, fácil de instalar y sin problemas de conexión.
