Black Box CAT6 RJ45 Unshielded 8-Wire 50-Pack

SKU CH-QEB2-YNPM6

A pack of fifty unshielded CAT6 RJ45 plugs for terminating network cables

  • FCC compliant for reliable network performance
  • Meets or exceeds CAT6 specifications for high-speed data
  • 50-pack supplies enough plugs for large installations
  • 8-wire RJ45 design supports full Gigabit Ethernet connectivity
  • Unshielded construction simplifies termination in standard environments

Network termination kit

This 50-pack of CAT6 RJ45 modular plugs supports bulk termination of unshielded twisted-pair cable for structured wiring projects. The 8-wire connectors meet or exceed CAT6 specifications and comply with FCC requirements for reliable data transmission. They suit installers, IT teams and home-network builders who terminate their own patch cords or wall-plate drops. GSA and TAA markings indicate eligibility for US federal procurement.

Thermals noise and power

Passive connectors generate no heat, produce no audible noise and draw no electrical power during operation. Performance depends entirely on the quality of the crimp and the cable used with each plug. Proper tooling and wiring technique keep insertion loss and crosstalk within CAT6 limits.

Upgrade path and fit

These plugs replace worn, damaged or lower-category RJ45 ends on existing CAT5e or CAT6 runs, restoring headroom for gigabit speeds. The 50-unit quantity covers multi-drop jobs or future re-terminations without repeat orders. Buyers who need shielded connectors, tool-less termination or pre-made patch cables will need a different product.

Questions about this item

How do I crimp these Black Box CAT6 RJ45 plugs onto solid-core cable without splitting the pairs?

Untwist each pair only at the very tip, insert wires fully into the staggered 8-wire channels so the jacket sits just inside the plug body, then crimp with a standard RJ45 ratchet tool; the common error is leaving a gap between jacket and plug which fails certification.

Will the gold-plated contacts on these plugs need cleaning or re-crimping after a few years in a patch panel?

The gold plating resists oxidation, so no routine cleaning is required; if a link drops, re-terminate the same plug once or cut back the cable and use a fresh plug from the 50-pack.

At what bundle size does alien crosstalk become the limiting factor for these unshielded plugs?

In dense bundles the unshielded design reaches alien-crosstalk limits before the plug’s own insertion-loss budget, so keep CAT6 runs separated from heavy power cables and consider shielded plugs for very large bundles.
