Ficha de rede ShiverPeaks 08-45011 Cat 8.1 RJ45 sem ferramenta — ficha Ethernet blindada

The ShiverPeaks 08-45011 Cat 8.1 Tool-less RJ45 is a shielded network connector engineered for quick, reliable termination of Cat 8.1 Ethernet cables without the need for crimping tools. Designed to meet Cat 8.1 performance requirements, this modular plug supports high-speed Ethernet links up to 25/40 Gbps when used with compatible shielded twisted-pair cables and compliant network equipment. The tool-less design simplifies field work and reduces installation time while maintaining a shielded connection for improved electromagnetic compatibility and signal integrity.

Advantages

The connector provides a tool-less termination method that reduces the need for specialized crimping devices and accelerates deployment in patching and installation tasks. Its shielded construction ensures continuity of cable screening, helping to minimize electromagnetic interference in environments with high-density cabling. The modular design is suitable for rapid field replacements and data center patch panel work, offering consistent electrical contact and mechanical retention for repeated insertions.

Suitable for

• Field termination of shielded Cat 8.1 Ethernet cables
• Data center patching and rack-side connections
• High-speed LAN links requiring 25/40 Gbps-capable terminations
• Environments where maintaining cable shielding is necessary

Key specifications

How to use

Prepare the shielded Ethernet cable by stripping the outer jacket and exposing the foil and drain wire according to the connector's preparation requirements. Fold or position the shielding and drain conductor as recommended so the connector’s internal sleeve can make electrical contact. Insert the individual conductors into the connector’s wire guide, ensuring correct pair orientation, then seat the cable fully and secure the housing by closing the tool-less mechanism. Verify the mechanical fit and, where applicable, test the terminated link with appropriate network testing equipment to confirm continuity and performance.

Recommendations

Use with shielded Cat 8.1 certified cables and compatible network hardware to achieve intended performance. Inspect shielding continuity after termination and perform link testing at the required data rates. Avoid using the connector with unshielded cables; ensure proper grounding of the cable shield in installation to maintain EMC protection.
