FAQ
What cable types are these connectors compatible with?
These connectors are specifically designed for Cat5e network cables and are compatible with standard unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cables commonly used in networking applications.
What does 8P8C mean?
8P8C stands for 8-position, 8-contact, which refers to the connector having 8 wire positions with all 8 positions having electrical contacts. This is the standard configuration for Ethernet RJ45 connectors.
Do I need special tools to install these connectors?
Yes, you’ll need an RJ45 crimping tool to properly install these connectors. HAYDON offers the HAY-RJ45TOOLRAP for rapid-fit versions, or standard RJ45 crimping tools can be used for the regular connectors.
What’s the difference between the standard and rapid-fit versions?
The rapid-fit version (HAY-RJ45CAT5-50R) allows you to pass the cable through the connector without pre-trimming the wires. When used with the appropriate crimping tool, it crimps and cuts the cable in one action, speeding up installation.
Why are the contacts gold plated?
Gold plating provides superior electrical conductivity compared to standard contacts and offers excellent resistance to corrosion and oxidation, ensuring long-term reliability of your network connections.
How many connectors come in each pack?
Each pack contains 50 RJ45 connectors, making them ideal for larger installation projects or for maintaining stock for multiple smaller jobs.
