FAQ
What is the advantage of a pass-through RJ45 plug compared with a standard RJ45 plug?
A pass-through RJ45 plug allows the conductors to extend through the connector during termination, enabling installers to check the wire order before crimping. This improves termination accuracy and reduces rework caused by incorrect pin arrangements.
What is the difference between the 1.0mm straight hole and 1.2mm staggered hole designs?
The 1.0mm straight hole design is suitable for standard Ethernet conductors, while the 1.2mm staggered hole design provides additional space and better alignment for larger conductors commonly found in some CAT6A or shielded cables.
Can this RJ45 modular plug be used with shielded Ethernet cables?
Yes. This product supports both UTP and SFTP Ethernet cables. For shielded cable applications, the connector can be selected with appropriate shielding features to maintain grounding and EMI protection.
Is this connector compatible with CAT6A cables?
Yes. The pass-through RJ45 plug supports CAT6A Ethernet cable termination when the cable conductor size and structure match the selected hole design.
What crimping tool is recommended for this RJ45 plug?
A pass-through RJ45 crimping tool is recommended because it trims the excess conductor length during the crimping process and provides a cleaner, more reliable termination.
Can these plugs be used for custom-length patch cable production?
Yes. These modular plugs are commonly used for on-site or factory production of custom-length Ethernet patch cables, allowing flexible cable lengths and configurations.
