Black Box CAT6 EZ RJ45 Shielded Modular Plug (50-Pack)

Overview

The Black Box C6EZSP-50PAK is a pack of 50 shielded RJ45 modular plugs designed specifically for terminating Cat6 network cables quickly and reliably. These pass-through plugs allow you to push wires straight through the connector, making it easy to verify the wiring order before crimping. With 50-micron gold-plated contacts and a metal shield with internal grounding, these plugs maintain signal quality and reduce electromagnetic interference, ensuring stable network performance in demanding environments.

Key features

• Pass-through design enables fast, accurate terminations by allowing wires to extend through the plug for easy color verification
• One-piece construction reduces waste and minimizes the chance of errors during crimping
• 50-micron gold plating on contacts lowers resistance and protects against corrosion for consistent signal integrity over time
• Metal shell with internal ground shields cables from electromagnetic interference, improving network reliability near power lines or noisy equipment
• Compatible with both solid and stranded conductors, supporting cable jackets up to 0.041 inches in diameter
• Backward compatible with Cat5e networks, allowing seamless integration with existing infrastructure
• Meets FCC, UL, TAA, and RoHS standards, ensuring compliance with industry safety and environmental regulations
