S CONN RJ45 8P8C Modular Plug, Short Version, Unshielded, Transparent, for Cat5e/Cat6

The S CONN 72051-S RJ45 modular plug is a high-quality, short-body connector designed for professional Ethernet network installations. It supports 8P8C (8 positions, 8 conductors) configuration and is suitable for both solid and stranded conductors. This unshielded (UTP) plug is ideal for creating custom patch cables in Cat5e and Cat6 networks, ensuring reliable data transmission.

Advantages

Compact short-body design allows for easier installation in tight spaces and reduces cable strain. Gold-plated contacts (3µm) provide excellent corrosion resistance and maintain signal integrity over repeated mating cycles. The transparent polycarbonate housing enables visual inspection of wire placement before crimping, reducing installation errors. Compatible with AWG 24-26 conductors, this plug offers flexibility for various cable types.

Suitable for

• Ethernet network cabling (Cat5e, Cat6)
• LAN connections in offices, data centers, and home networks
• Custom patch cable assembly
• Data communication applications requiring reliable RJ45 connections
