trueCABLE Cat6/6A RJ45 Pass Through Modular Plugs, Shielded (STP) External Ground Connector, UL Listed, EZ Crimp, Gold Plated 3 Prong 8P8C, 100 Pieces

Easy to use and high quality!

I made the mistake of buying other connectors to save some money, and it wasted so much of my time. I used these with TrueCable CAT6A shielded cable to run HDMI over CAT. Other connectors had poor fit in jacks (hard to get that click), had tons of noise still, had loose connectors, and robbed me of literal hours of time because of how hard the pass through was to get right.These were simple. Line my conductor wires up and the slid right through. Easy to verify, easy to crimp, tested perfectly, worked perfectly with no noise. Even when used for HDMI (HDMI is much more susceptible to noise), they just worked. Fit in jacks is perfect, easy to remove, etc. Didn't think I could be so impressed by something so simple. but it was just such a relief.I only wish they could sell these at a sub $1.00/piece price without having to purchase so many

I’ve use almost a whole package of these and they are well made. The only problems I’ve had, have all been user-error. Some of the multi-piece connectors I’ve used in the past were easier to get the wires inserted into but I’m not sure if they are compatible with the latest standards. As long as you have some extra wire stripped back you can always feed the wires into the connector one at a time rather than all at once. I used the True Cable crimper and it cleaned up the wires that stuck out and made the grounds look nice.

Cables worked like a charm. Shielded CAT6 cable fit perfectly.

I was working with Cat6 cable for the first time. I needed to run cable outdoors, exposed to the elements, so I purchased 500 feet of trueCABLE Cat6 outdoor shielded 23 AWG cable. This is very robust and highly-insulated cable, making it ideal for long-term outdoor applications, but also more challenging to work with, especially adding RJ45 terminations. Most RJ45 pass-through terminals cannot accommodate the thick trueCABLE that I had ordered, so I chose these based on others' recommendations. Even with these, this thick cable is not easy to terminate (I had to practice), but I think it would have been impossible with a different terminal. Get these and follow the trueCABLE instructional videos.

During the process of building a new home, I ran several thousand feet of trueCABLE Cat6A Shielded Riser (CMR) (B079NN5S58). To terminate the ends for UniFi access points and UniFi Protect cameras, I purchased these trueCABLE Cat6/6A RJ45 Pass Through Modular Plugs for Shielded (STP) cable. It's a great setup. Also, the trueCABLE RJ45 Strain Relief Boots, 7.5mm Slip-On PVC Plug Cover (B08MHS9N81) worked well, however, Plug Cover can't be used with all devices so make surety check prior to using them.The RJ45 Pass Through connector was great and my Klein Tools VDV226-110 made quick work of getting them terminated. The one issue I ran into was getting the tabs bent around. I tried several different methods but it would have been much easier if I had the trueCABLE all in one V2 tool (B089B4Z5RV).So. If you're going this route and haven't purchased the tools, you may want to consider the trueCABLE all in one V2 even though the Klein Tools VDV226-110 is rock solid. It will make you life easier as you crimp the grounding tabs for the shielded component.Pros:- Rugged and durable design- Secure cable connection- CAT 6a rated and designed for shielded cableCons:- Crimping the ground tabs can be a bit of a pain if you don't have the right tool. I was using the inside of my Klein Snips thumb hole to bend the tabs over and make sure they maintaind a shape that would allow for me to install the Plug Cover. It was a bit of a pain. But I prefer Klein Tools so it's what I had to do not wanting to buy the trueCABLE all in one V2.Would you recommend it to a friend? Yes, I would. I've purchased them multiple times.

A good plug that fits the larger true Cable direct burial cable. The trick is to get the pairs as straight as possible. and a little longer to work with them better, and I did four wires at a time in order to line them up correctly to fit the staggered hole alignment of the plug.

I recently installed a security camera system at my home in a remote area of Costa Rica. I specifically chose TrueCABLE ends, cable, and tools due to your high reviews, as I needed reliable components for this location.Unfortunately, the plastic locking pins on the connectors do not have enough tension to remain secure in the camera sockets. After applying dielectric grease, which is necessary for the humid climate, the connectors would not stay seated. I was forced to improvise a solution to keep the pins engaged and prevent them from pushing out.This is unacceptable given the critical nature of the installation and the remote location. I have never encountered this issue with other connectors in the past.
