How to use

Slide the cable boot onto the cable before fitting the RJ45 plug, position it close to the plug body, then terminate the connector. Once the plug is crimped, slide the boot forward until it covers the connector latch area and rests against the plug body to provide strain relief and protection. For pre-assembled cables, remove the connector if necessary or fit boots prior to plug assembly.

Recommendations

Use these boots to maintain cable longevity and to simplify identification of cable types or network segments. For best results, choose the correct boot size for your cable diameter and avoid forcing oversized or undersized boots over connectors to prevent deformation.
