Modular Connector ShiverPeaks 72062-R 8‑pole modular connector for data and signal cabling

Modular connector ShiverPeaks 72062-R is an 8-pole modular connector for data and signal cabling that provides eight contact positions for reliable electrical connections. The connector is shielded and fitted with gold-plated contacts to ensure consistent signal transmission and reduced contact resistance. It is designed for use with Cat.7 raw cable and includes a cable insertion guide and strain relief to simplify installation and maintain long-term connection integrity.

Advantages

The connector's shielding reduces electromagnetic interference in dense cabling environments, while the 50 µin gold plating on contacts improves corrosion resistance and contact reliability. The integrated insertion guide eases conductor alignment during termination, and the strain relief secures the cable to prevent mechanical stress on contacts. Compact 8-pole layout supports standardized patch panels, keystone modules, and structured cabling systems.

Suitable for

• Structured network installations requiring an 8-pole interface
• Telecommunication outlets and patch panels
• Industrial control systems and signal cabling
• High-performance Ethernet using Cat.7 raw cable

Key specifications

• Contact positions: 8 poles
• Contact finish: gold-plated contacts with 50 µin plating
• Shielding: full connector shielding for EMI reduction
• Cable compatibility: intended for use with Cat.7 raw cable
• Features: cable insertion guide and integrated strain relief
• Intended applications: data and signal cabling, patch panels, keystone modules

How to use

Prepare the Cat.7 raw cable by stripping the outer jacket to the recommended length, fan out or arrange pairs as required by the connector design, and align conductors with the insertion guide. Insert conductors into the connector until they seat firmly, then apply the appropriate termination method for the connector type. Secure the cable with the integrated strain relief to lock the cable in place and reduce mechanical load on the contacts. Verify continuity and signal quality after installation using appropriate network testing equipment.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this 8-pole modular connector with shielded Cat.7 cable and maintain proper grounding of the shielded system. Follow standard termination and testing procedures for structured cabling to ensure low crosstalk and consistent signal transmission. Avoid excessive bend radii and mechanical stress at the termination point.
