Category rating
Cat 6a — stated in the title, with transmission to 10 Gbit/s and 500 MHz in the fifth bullet. Two standards are named in the first bullet, ISO/IEC 11801 and TIA568-C2
Solid or stranded compatibility
Solid only — stated in the second bullet as solid or full conductor at AWG 22 to 25, for rigid installation cable. Stranded conductors are never offered, and the fourth bullet lists only installation cable among the categories it suits
Shielded or unshielded
Shielded — stated in the title and in the first bullet. Nothing describes how the body bonds to the cable screen
Accepted conductor diameter
AWG 22 to 25 — stated in the second bullet as the conductor window. No figure in millimetres appears beside it, so a cable that publishes only a diameter has to be converted before it can be checked
Accepted cable diameter
Not published on the listing — the outside diameter of the sheath is never given, on a plug whose body has to close around it. A strain-relief boot is named instead
Load bar presence
Not published on the listing — the third bullet describes snap-in technology in which the conductors are pressed onto the insulation-displacement strip as the plug is closed. No separate lacing insert is named
Pass-through or standard body
Neither — this is a field-terminated insulation-displacement plug, stated in the first bullet as needing no crimping tool. Nothing describes conductors emerging at the front, and nothing describes a crimp
Pack quantity
Four — stated in the title

  • Terminated with no crimping tool, which removes the one purchase that stops most people making a lead
  • Names two standards rather than a category on its own
  • Solid conductors only, so it will not finish a stranded patch lead

Best for: A repair or an extension on a fixed run of solid installation cable, made by hand at the point where the cable comes out of the wall.

On the listing

A shielded Cat 6a RJ45 plug in packs of four, terminated with an insulation-displacement connection so that no crimping tool is needed, and named against two standards — ISO/IEC 11801 and TIA568-C2. The conductor window is given as solid or full conductor, AWG 22 to 25, for rigid installation cable. Termination is by snap-in: the conductors are pressed automatically onto the strip as the plug is closed. Compatibility is claimed with rigid installation cable in Cat 5, Cat 6, Cat 6a, Cat 7 and Cat 7a, transmission to 10 Gbit/s and 500 MHz is quoted, and a robust strain-relief boot is included.

AWG 22 to 25, solid, and what that excludes

One line on this packet decides whether it is the right plug, and the listing prints it. Solid conductor, AWG 22 to 25. That is a gauge window and a construction together, which is more than most of this shelf manages, and it is exactly the pair of facts a cable has to be matched against.

What follows from it is an exclusion the page does not spell out but the specification does. Stranded patch cable is out — its conductors are bundles, and a contact set for a single core is not the right shape for them. So is anything outside the window at either end. An installation run at AWG23 sits comfortably inside; a thin flexible cord does not.

Termination without a tool, and what that is worth

Most of this shelf is crimped, which means a tool, which means a purchase that costs more than the plugs. This one closes onto an insulation-displacement strip by hand: the conductors are laid in, the body is snapped shut, and the strip cuts through the insulation as it goes.

That is the same principle a keystone module uses, brought forward to the end of a lead. It suits a repair at the point where a cable emerges from a wall, or a plug fitted to a run that was never terminated. It does not suit making up twenty leads, where a ratcheting tool and a bag of crimp plugs is faster and cheaper per end.

The diameter that is not on the packet

A gauge window says what the eight conductors may be. It says nothing about the sheath they arrive in, and the body has to close around that. This listing gives no outside diameter at all, which leaves one of the two dimensions that decide fit unpublished — and it is the one that varies most between a thin Cat 5e cord and a fat screened Cat 7 run.

Three plugs on this shelf do publish an outside diameter. This is not one of them, and the strain-relief boot named in the fifth bullet is a mechanical answer to a dimensional question.

Before ordering

Read the cable first. The gauge has to be inside AWG 22 to 25 and the conductors have to be solid, and both of those are printed on a cable listing or a drum, never visible in a photograph. Then check the sheath diameter yourself with a caliper if the cable does not publish one, because this packet does not, and a body that will not close is a plug wasted.
