6-Pack RJ45 Connectors Tool Free Cat 8, Cat8 Field Termination Plug Shielded RJ45 Modular Plugs for 2000MHz 2GHz 40G Double Shielded Solid LAN Cable 22AWG-24AWG

The house is now cabled with CAT7, but what they don't tell you is that CAT7 is not IEEE certified and typically uses a GG45 connector instead of an RJ45. Trying to find a traditional RJ45 connector that will handle the larger guage is near impossible. I even tried connectors certified for CAT6A, but the guage was still way too tight to get the wires fed into the connector. I found these tool-less ones and, OMG!, these are a godsend! They worked perfectly! Since they are closer to a 110 style block, there are no guides to shove the cables into. They lay in the channel and closing the casing locks them in place. I am not sure why users are complaining about them being difficult to use. Connections are clearly marked on all parts. The shield will need to remain below the casing to screw it on properly. It would be nice to have it crimp tighter to the end of the cable shield, but I don't plan on tugging on them anyway. And they are snug enough that the insulator does not pull out unless you use excessive force. I have full 2.5Gbps speed over the short runs that I have. The first was connected to a WiFi7 Ubiquiti access point and is testing at higher speed than the previous CAT5 cable that was only 10 foot long. And it only took about one minute to get it installed. Total cable distance is 39 feet from 110 block in the office to the mount point. My one complaint would be the price. It is more than 3X the cost of 50 standard RJ45 connectors. Based on price per connector, that is 12X the cost of the traditional connector. But I was in a pinch and would prefer to pay $50 over the cost to completely require five cable runs. I was quoted $3000 by a local low voltage installer. $50 is much more affordable.

Great connector for Cat 7 wire. The easiest and cleanest looking connector I have found for Cat 7.

Horrible, not worth buying. I spend hours. Trying to get this to work with no luck.

Very Good

Very nice connectors. Easy to use. However a set of plyers is needed to properly seat the CAT7A conductors before the shell can be seated down.

Worked great, It took some getting use to but once I got the hang of terminating its was smooth sailing.

These work great, no need to use a punch down tool, or a tool to squeeze together. Easy to push together with some strong hands. Be careful with copper strip to cover wire shielding. I think I've installed about 30 of these and have not yet had one fail to work.

I bought shielded CAT6 for under my house. I tried using my regular ends. I quickly realized the CAT6 has a slightly bigger wires. These made life so much easier. If you are working with CAT6+ then these are your best friend. Also great for quickly testing wires.
