Shielded RJ45 Cat6 Cat 6A Connectors - Pass Through Connector Gold Plated 3 Prong 8P8C Modular Plugs for FTP/STP Stranded Ethernet Cable & Solid Wire - 50 Pcs/Jar

The seller contacted me to inform me that they had updated the description with a lower maximum diameter allowed for the wires to 1.16mm. The cable in my original review has 1.19mm wires (solid core + insulation). I am glad the description is now reflecting the product correctly. -- original review Doesn't work for 23AWG I have crimped quite a number of shielded cat5 for work before. I have some idea about what I am doing. Technically, with enough persuasion, you can get the 8x23awg in this connector. But this an incredibly frustrating experience. I had to re-cut and retry 5 of 6 times before I could get one successful crimp. After 1h30 I had the two ends of a test cable crimped. Clearly the tolerances are too tight. Not only it is almost impossible to pass all the wires through without bending them. And then fighting with needle nose pliers. But you can also easily damage the insulation or the wire itself after repetitive bending. Any fatal mistake, and you have to cut 10 more centimeters out of your cable and try again. Then came the issue of cutting the protruding wires. You would think it would be quick work with a pair of flush cutters. Sadly, the plastic tab of the connector gets in the way. You can never cut them flush. Which means that they wont fit in many rj45 receptacle. I tried using a thin blade to cut them flush, but that only mangled the wires and probably shorted some together. Which leads me to the final cable test. Two wires, where shorted together. My guess is the insulation stripped during the insertion, and they got somewhat crimped together. 24AWG or thinner would likely fit well in the connector. But you would still have the issue of cutting the protruding wires flush.

Right size holes make all the difference! A ran some cat6 underground grade and when I went to put the connectors on it was a nightmare! I did order some connectors that said they were Cat 6, but they were not able to handle diameter of the twisted pair wires. These connectors have 1.2 mm holes and with just a little jiggling, slide right through. After crimping I have no issues whatsoever! They are shielded but I don't know how much of a difference that makes. Came in a nice plastic jar and overall seemed to be high quality.

DO NOT GO BY THE WIRING DIAGRAM ON THE JAR (see photo). It has the same picture for both T568A and B configurations. If you’re doing B, thE provided picture is a *miswire.* Consult a reputable diagram. Still, that’s the only problem I’ve found with these, and am satisfied with the purchase. Leave your wires long, as it is rare to insert them flat (as normal) and have them line up properly in the over-under configuration. It’s much easier to individually thread them in by hand which means burning a little more wire, but I bought 1000’ so that’s not a huge concern for me. Kind of a PITA to get right, but they work well when properly installed. If you’re doing a large volume of cables, you might look for an easier configuration as these take time to get right, and patience is a virtue. I have super-thick outdoor Cat6A 23 AWG solid copper cabling, and I have to “squish” the jacket about 2-3cm back from the exposed pairs to get it to slide in. Still, it’s solid when crimped and makes a high quality cable. Don’t forget to order boots!

Worked well on regular 6A and FTP; does not fit SFTP well, but it didn't say it would either. Crimped fine and throughput has been good.

These things are great! I was working with some outdoor rated STP Cat 6 and couldn't get it to work with standard connectors. I bought passthrough connectors for the first time and that was an improvement but I was still having a rough time getting all of wires in and, once I did, I still had problems where all 8 wires wouldn't connect. I finally tried these and the staggered wire connectors were exactly what I needed. My wires went in super quick and easy, and every connection I've made has worked perfectly. I wish I would have started here.

Extremely frustrating! I have been terminating cat 5/6 for over 20 years and I have never had as many issues as I have had with these connectors. They seem to have about an 80% failure rate and a tendency to short out pins 7&8. Each termination requires multiple crimp attempts. I thought maybe my crimping tool was bad, so I ordered different brand pass-through connectors but didn't have the same issue with my crimping tool. I threw these in the trash and will not reorder this brand again.

I wrote a 1 star review yesterday which was wrong and unfair. The real problem is that the installer did not properly crimp the connector. That is the reason that it would not fit into ports or couplers. I am going to have a different installer provide their own connectors so my 5 stars to make amends for the wrong statements yesterday. When properly crimped this is a good product and the pass through is certainly easier.

Wow, I had ordered like 4 different types of RJ-45 ends for a direct burial Cat 6 cable and I could not get any of them to fit ! They all were too big and when putting the pair into place, they would just bunch up and bend (although the others stated they should work). Finally I got to these on the list, and boom, they slid right in. I really liked having the open ends as well so you could push the cables all the way through, and then cut them evenly. Definitely recommend for anyone doing some DIY ethernet cabling at home!

As advertised.

Pass through connectors. Why would you use anything else
