50-Pack Cat6 Pass-Through Connectors

These Cat6 pass-through RJ45 connectors come in a 50-count pack for building custom-length Ethernet cables. They are designed for solid or stranded UTP cables using 23-24 AWG wire with insulated conductors between 0.97 and 1.07mm and an outside diameter up to 6.1mm. The transparent plugs feature 50µ gold-plated contacts for corrosion resistance. They suit installers, network technicians, and home users terminating their own runs.

Three-Point Staggered Contact Termination

The connectors use a three-point staggered contact design that aims to give a secure and stable connection. Wires feed through the pass-through body so the order can be verified before crimping, which reduces wasted ends and rework. Rated for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and backward compatible with Cat5e, they support 1000 megabits per second data rates. The plastic body and gold plating maintain conductivity over repeated mating cycles.

Upgrade from Standard Closed-End RJ45 Plugs

This pack replaces standard closed-end RJ45 plugs where verifying wire sequence before crimping is difficult. The pass-through design lets you confirm the colour order through the clear housing, cutting scrap on large jobs. It is not for shielded cable, outdoor burial, or applications needing a tool-less termination. Buyers who need angled boots or integrated strain relief should source those separately.

Questions about this item

Do these connectors generate any heat or consume power when installed in a permanent network run?

No, these are passive RJ45 connectors with no active electronics, so they produce no heat and draw no power once crimped onto the cable.

What tools and cable type do I need to terminate these pass-through plugs?

You need a pass-through compatible crimp tool, a cable cutter, and 23-24 AWG solid or stranded UTP cable with 0.97-1.07mm insulated conductors and up to 6.1mm outer diameter.

Will these Cat6 plugs work with the Cat5e patch panel and older router I already have?

Yes, the connectors are backward compatible with Cat5e cabling and fit standard RJ45 ports on legacy patch panels, routers and switches.
