Cable Matters 100-Pack Cat 6A Shielded Pass Through RJ45 Connectors

SKU CH-XC40-W8D7V

Shielded pass-through RJ45 connectors for Cat 6A cable, 100-pack in a storage jar

  • 100 connectors in a jar for large projects
  • Pass-through design speeds up Cat 6A termination
  • Shielded metal housing blocks EMI on 10Gbps links
  • Gold-plated 8P8C contacts resist corrosion long-term
  • Fits 23-24 AWG solid or stranded wire up to 5.8mm

100-Pack Cat 6A Shielded Connectors

This 100-pack of Cat 6A shielded pass-through RJ45 connectors is designed for installers building custom-length Ethernet cables. It supports 23-24 AWG solid or stranded S/FTP cable with an outside diameter up to 5.8mm. The bulk quantity suits large projects or multiple smaller jobs across routers, patch panels and workstations.

Sustained 10Gbps Channel Performance

Rated for Category 6A performance, these connectors maintain 10Gbps 10GBASE-T Ethernet channel compliance over extended runs. Gold-plated 8P8C contacts resist corrosion and preserve signal integrity under continuous load. Backward compatibility allows use with Cat 6 and Cat 5e cable, though the link will operate at the lower category's rated speed.

Pass-Through Termination in a Jar

The pass-through design lets wires feed through the connector front for easy verification before crimping, using a standard three-point staggered contact crimp tool. A screw-top jar with integrated handle stores and protects the 100 connectors on site. Optional strain-relief boots can be added for extra cable protection, though none are included in this pack.

Questions about this item

Do these Cat 6A shielded pass-through RJ45 connectors generate any heat or noise when used continuously in a 10Gbps network?

No, the connectors are passive components with no active electronics, so they produce no heat or noise during continuous 10GBASE-T operation.

What tools and cable type do I need to terminate these 100 connectors properly?

You need a standard RJ45 crimp tool and 23-24 AWG solid or stranded S/FTP cable with an outside diameter up to 5.8mm.

Will these connectors work reliably if I mix them with my existing Cat 6 and Cat 5e patch cables?

Yes, they are backward compatible with Cat 6 and Cat 5e cable, allowing you to use them alongside older cables while maintaining the performance of each category.
