Product Overview
The IDEAL Feed-Thru CAT6 8P8C (eight position/eight contact) modular plug connector is the first feed-thru style connector and tool solution to offer a flush cut of the excess conductor to the face of the modular plug. A patent pending design enables conductors to be cut flush with the end face of the connector when used with the FT-45™ tool (30-495). The flush cut eliminates inadvertent contact among adjacent conductors or with the mating jack. Conductor spacing is maintained for reliable performance in PoE and data applications.Conductor order can then be verified before the connector is crimped. This elimates wasted connectors, saves time in assembly, and reduces the chances of finding an error during a wiremap test of the cable. The cable can be pushed or pulled into the connector to ensure that the twisted pairs are within 1/4″ of the pin contacts and that the jacket is seated beyond the primary strain relief for a secure connection-better NEXT performance, minimal untwisted wires.
Main Features
- Feed-Thru design simplifies twisted pair assembly process
- Verify conductor order before crimping
- Conductors tri mmed to the correct length by the tool – no measuring
- Eliminates wasted connectors due to incorrect assembly
- Single-piece design
- Accepts outer jacket cable diameters up to .280″
- Permanent connection – once crimped they cannot be reused
