How to use

Insert each RJ45 connector into the corresponding RJ45 port on the devices to be connected until the connector latch clicks. If installing outdoors or in a housing, attach the built-in waterproof plug through a compatible cut-out or mating interface to achieve the IP68 seal. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and secure it as needed to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

For reliable outdoor performance, ensure the mating housing or panel provides a matching cut-out and that the built-in plug is fully engaged. Avoid excessive bending radius near the connectors and check seals periodically in exposed installations.
