The Feed Thru RJ45 Cat5/6 Connector (U/UTP) is designed for fast, accurate, and reliable termination of CAT5e and CAT6 unshielded Ethernet cables. Featuring a pass-through design, the conductors can extend through the front of the connector before crimping, making wire alignment easier and reducing installation errors. It is ideal for network installers, system integrators, and structured cabling projects requiring efficient field termination.

Q1: What is a Feed Thru RJ45 connector?
A1: A Feed Thru RJ45 connector allows conductors to pass through the front of the plug, making it easier to verify wire order before crimping.
Q2: Does it support PoE applications?
A2: Yes. It is suitable for PoE, PoE+, and standard network installations when paired with compatible cables.
Q3: Is it compatible with solid and stranded conductors?
A3: Yes. The connector supports both solid and stranded Ethernet cable conductors.
Q4: Do OSP cables support PoE?
A4: Yes. OSP Ethernet cables support PoE, PoE+, and selected models support PoE++ applications.
Q5: Does the length of a network cable affect network speed?
A5: Cat5e supports a maximum length of 100 meters, while Cat6 supports 10Gbps over a maximum distance of 55 meters. Exceeding these standard lengths may lead to signal attenuation and a reduction in network speed.
