Shielded RJ45 plug EQUIP Cat 8.1, male, silver, 50 pcs, 11.7×22.5 mm, 3.7 g

Set of 50 shielded EQUIP Cat 8.1 RJ45 male plugs in silver, each measuring 11.7 × 22.5 mm and weighing 3.7 g. These 8P8C cable-mount modular plugs are designed for Cat.8.1 round cables (up to 9.5 mm) and solid 24 AWG conductors, providing a compact, shielded termination suitable for high-speed Ethernet installations, bulk deployments and professional network repairs. The connectors comply with RoHS and CE requirements and are intended for environments that require stable, high-bandwidth connections.

Advantages

The shielded design reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk in high-density networking environments while gold-plated contacts improve conductivity and corrosion resistance for reliable long-term performance. Compact dimensions and standard RJ45 male straight form factor simplify installation in data centers, enterprise backbones and specialized cabling tasks. Supplied in a pack of 50 for efficient bulk use.

Suitable for

• High-speed Ethernet cabling (Cat 8.1)
• Data centers and enterprise networks
• Professional network repairs and terminations
• Bulk installation projects and cable assembly
• Applications requiring shielded RJ45 terminations

How to use

Prepare the Cat 8.1 round cable by stripping the outer jacket to the recommended length and arranging the solid 24 AWG conductors in the correct pinout. Insert the conductors into the 8P8C plug following the wiring standard in use (T568A or T568B), ensure full seat of each conductor and close/terminate the plug according to the connector assembly method for this model. Verify shielding continuity to the cable drain or foil and perform continuity and performance testing after termination.

Recommendations

Use these shielded Cat 8.1 RJ45 plugs with compatible round Cat.8.1 cables up to 9.5 mm and solid 24 AWG conductors. Confirm correct wiring standard and maintain shield continuity for optimal EMI protection. Inspect terminations visually and test with appropriate network testers to confirm performance up to 40 Gbps and 2000 MHz.
