Why choose it

This connector eliminates the need for crimping tools, reducing installation time and potential errors. Its robust metal housing protects against EMI and mechanical stress, making it suitable for demanding environments. The ability to reuse the connector up to five times adds flexibility for moves, adds, and changes in network infrastructure.

Ideal use cases

• Field termination of Cat.6A shielded cables in data centers
• Industrial network installations where tool access is limited
• Office cabling upgrades to 10G Ethernet
• Quick repairs or temporary links requiring reliable PoE delivery

Good to know

The connector supports Power over Ethernet up to 4PPoE, allowing it to power devices like IP cameras or wireless access points directly through the cable. It is compatible with both solid and stranded conductors, offering versatility across cable types. Always verify cable diameter within 6.0–9.0 mm for optimal strain relief and performance.
