Adaptador ShiverPeaks 71220-8M-SET5 conector de patch modular Cat 5, 8 pinos RJ45

Adapter ShiverPeaks 71220-8M-SET5 modular patch connector Cat 5, 8-position RJ45 is a modular termination component designed for creating reliable Ethernet connections with 8-position RJ45 cabling. The connector supports Cat 5 performance for twisted-pair network cables and is intended for use in patch panels, wall plates, keystone modules and other structured cabling applications where a standardized RJ45 interface is required.

Advantages

The modular patch connector offers a compact, standardized 8-position RJ45 interface that simplifies cable terminations and patching tasks. Its metalized, shielded construction reduces electromagnetic interference and provides better grounding in screened cabling environments. Designed for straightforward installation, the connector is supplied in a five-piece set to support multiple terminations and small installation projects.

Suitable for

• Terminating Cat 5 twisted-pair network cables
• Installing keystone modules in wall plates and patch panels
• Creating short patch connections in LAN and office networks
• Replacing or upgrading RJ45 terminations in structured cabling

Key specifications

• Cable category support: Cat 5 (twisted-pair Ethernet)
• Contact positions: 8-position RJ45
• Connector style: modular patch / keystone-style
• Shielding: metalized, shielded construction for EMI reduction
• Set quantity: five connectors per package
• Intended installations: patch panels, wall plates, keystone housings

How to use

Prepare the twisted-pair cable by stripping the outer jacket to expose the pairs, untwist and align the conductors according to the appropriate wiring standard. Insert the conductors into the connector termination slots and secure the termination using the recommended crimping or IDC tool for modular patch connectors. After termination, verify proper seating of the plug in the keystone housing or panel and test continuity and signal integrity with network testing equipment to confirm Cat 5 performance.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, use these connectors with Cat 5-rated twisted-pair cable and maintain proper pair untwist lengths during termination. Ensure shielding continuity by connecting the connector’s metalized shell to the cable shield and chassis ground where applicable. Perform link testing after installation to verify signal quality and correct wiring.
