CAT5e 8P8C (eight position/eight contact) modular plug connectors which support TIA/EIA standards for twisted pair cabling up to 100 MHz. IDEAL modular plugs are designed to work seamlessly with the IDEAL Telemaster™ and FT-45™ series of modular plug crimp tools. Plugs are designed and manufactured to support all 100Ω cable wiring schemes including the widely used TIA-568A and TIA-568B configurations.

• Features
• 8 position, 8 contact RJ-45 modular plug for CAT5e, 100Ω balanced twisted pair 100 MHz cables
• 50 micro-inch gold plating on contact mating area for long term reliability in connectivity, even after hundreds of mating cycles
• Complies with industry standard mechanical and electrical specifications for compatibility with compliant modular jacks and ports
• Designed to work seamlessly with IDEAL Telemaster™ crimping tools. Also compatible with industry standard modular plug crimping tools meeting specifications.
• Three prong contact design for use with solid or stranded 24-26 AWG insulated copper conductors
• Three prong contact design for use with solid or stranded 24-26 AWG insulated copper conductors. Max conductor diameter of 0.042"/1.07mm. Max recommended cable outer jacket diameter 0.270"/ 6.8mm.
• Permanent connection - once crimped they cannot be reused
• Primary and secondary strain relief supports to retain cable jacket and minimize conductor movement once crimped
• Non-feed through design to prevent external conductor/device shorting and RF signal leakage
• Optional external strain relief boots are available.
