Cat 5e 8P8C (eight position/eight contact) modular plug connectors which support EIA/TIA standards for twisted pair cabling up to 100 MHz. Plugs are designed and manufactured to support all 100 Ohm cable wiring schemes including the widely used TIA-568A and TIA-568B configurations. IDEAL modular plugs are manufactured to strict industry standards and tolerances that utilize traditional preparation and termination methods. These proven and preferred methods allow for improved compatibility among manufacturers and devices around the world without the need for special tooling or preparation methods.
8-position, 8-contact RJ-45 modular plug for Cat 5e, 100 Ohm balanced twisted pair 100 MHz cables
50 micro-inch gold plating on contact mating area for long term reliability in connectivity, even after hundreds of mating cycles
Designed to work seamlessly with IDEAL Telemaster crimping tools, also compatible with industry standard modular plug crimping tools meeting specifications
3-prong contact design for use with solid or stranded 24-26 AWG insulated copper conductors, maximum conductor diameter of 0.042 in./1.07 mm, maximum recommended cable outer jacket diameter 0.175 in./4.5 mm
Permanent connection - once crimped they cannot be reused
Primary and secondary strain relief supports to retain cable jacket and minimize conductor movement once crimped
Optional external strain relief boots are available
Works with solid or stranded 24-AWG Cat 5e cable
Compatible with industry standard mod plug crimping tools
