Wire connector RJ-45 ShiverPeaks 72067-20B Blue

The ShiverPeaks Wire connector RJ-45 72067-20B Blue is a male RJ-45 plug designed for terminating category network cables. Supplied in a pack of 20, these blue connectors are intended for creating reliable physical connections between twisted-pair cables and RJ-45 jacks in networking equipment. The connector body and contact arrangement follow the standard RJ-45 form factor to fit typical patch panels, keystone jacks and network devices.

Advantages

These male RJ-45 connectors provide consistent electrical contact and mechanical stability for copper twisted-pair cables. The transparent housing allows visual inspection of wire alignment during termination while the molded strain-relief section helps reduce cable stress. Pack quantity of 20 supports small installation or repair jobs without requiring frequent repurchase.

Suitable for

• Terminating unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) network cables
• Assembling patch cables for LAN and office networks
• Replacing damaged RJ-45 plugs on existing cables
• Small installation and repair work where a supply of connectors is needed

Key specifications

• Connector type: male RJ-45 plug suitable for standard 8P8C interfaces
• Pack contents: 20 connectors
• Housing color: blue with transparent elements for wire alignment
• Contact material: plated contacts for reliable signal transmission
• Strain relief: integrated molded strain-relief section
• Compatibility: designed for terminating category network cables (e.g., Cat5e/Cat6 where physical plug design is compatible)

How to use

Prepare the cable by stripping the outer jacket to expose the individual conductors, untwisting pairs only as much as required for termination. Arrange the wires in the correct pinout order, then insert them fully into the connector so each conductor seats beneath its respective contact. Use an appropriate crimping tool to press the contacts into the wires and secure the plug. Verify the connection visually and, if available, test the terminated cable with a network tester to ensure continuity and correct pairing.

Recommendations

When assembling cables, avoid excessive untwisting of pairs to maintain signal performance. Use a crimp tool matched to RJ-45 8P8C plugs and inspect each termination for full contact and proper strain-relief engagement. Store unused connectors in a dry environment away from direct sunlight to preserve material properties.
