Black Box Corporation C5E-MP-S-100PAK RJ-45 shielded plug 100 pack

SKU CH-R43W-ZH0ZS MPN C5E-MP-S-100PAK

A pack of 100 shielded RJ-45 connectors with gold-plated contacts for Cat5e network cabling

  • Gold-plated contacts resist corrosion for reliable signal transfer
  • Shielded RJ-45 design reduces electromagnetic interference in noisy environments
  • 100-pack bulk quantity suits large cabling projects and installers
  • RoHS compliant materials meet environmental safety standards
  • CAT5e modular plug terminates solid or stranded twisted-pair cable

Network Connectors for Bulk Installation

These Black Box CAT5e Value Line modular plugs provide 100 shielded RJ-45 male connectors in a single pack. They are designed for technicians and installers terminating shielded twisted-pair cable on site. Gold-plated contacts help maintain reliable signal integrity across each connection. The plugs meet RoHS environmental standards.

Replaces Loose or Small-Count Connector Bags

A 100-pack eliminates the need to reorder frequently during large wiring jobs or multi-room deployments. Shielded construction addresses electromagnetic interference that unshielded plugs cannot block. The quantity suits projects where consistent termination quality across dozens of cable runs is required. Smaller packs become impractical when termination volume exceeds a few dozen endpoints.

Suits Installers Building Shielded CAT5e Links

Network professionals deploying shielded Category 5e infrastructure will match the plug specification to the cable type. Buyers needing unshielded plugs, Category 6 or 6A performance, or tool-less termination should select a different product. The pack size also exceeds the needs of occasional home repairs or single-cable fixes.

Questions about this item

What cable diameter will the shielded RJ-45 plug accept?

The shielded RJ-45 plug is designed for standard CAT5e solid or stranded conductors with typical insulation diameters; verify your cable outer diameter against the plug's cable entry before crimping.

Which crimp tool and die set are required to terminate the shielded RJ-45 plug correctly?

Use a ratchet crimp frame with an 8P8C shielded die that matches the plug's contact geometry; the common mistake is using an unshielded die, which leaves the ground tabs uncompressed.

When should the gold-plated contacts be inspected or the plug replaced?

Inspect the gold-plated contacts after any re-termination or if intermittent link errors appear; replace the plug if the plating shows wear, corrosion or the shield tabs are bent.
