Reliable Performance in Harsh Environments
This cat6 rj45 shielded connector is purpose-built for environments with high electromagnetic interference. The metal shell ensures full shielding continuity and helps prevent data loss caused by crosstalk or external electrical noise—perfect for use near power equipment, in manufacturing zones, or within data centers.
Perfect for Custom Cables
Whether you’re crafting custom-length patch cables or performing field terminations on-site, this RJ45 STP connector offers flexibility and control. Compatible with solid or stranded conductors (24–26 AWG), it supports both permanent installations and temporary connections.
Applications
- Data centres and enterprise backbones
- Industrial networking in factories and warehouses
- High-speed structured cabling in commercial buildings
- EMI-sensitive telecom and AV environments
Durable, Long-Lasting Construction
Crafted with gold-plated contacts and a robust strain relief system, the CAT6 RJ45 shielded plug maintains reliable signal transmission through hundreds of connection cycles. Its clip protector and tight housing design ensure stability in dense patch panel environments.
Tool Compatibility and Termination
Termination is straightforward using any standard RJ45 crimping tool designed for shielded plugs. When used with CAT6 FTP Outdoor Cable, it provides a robust, weather-ready connection.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this connector support Gigabit speeds?
Yes. This connector is rated for CAT6 and supports Gigabit Ethernet as well as 10/100 Mbps connections.
Do I need a special crimping tool?
Yes. A shielded RJ45 crimping tool is recommended for proper termination and grounding continuity.
Is it backward compatible with CAT5e?
Yes. While optimised for CAT6 STP cables, it can be used with CAT5e STP in legacy systems where shielding is required.
