IDEAL CAT6 Feed-Thru RJ-45 Modular Plugs: Professional Network Connectors with Enhanced Strain Relief
Experience superior network connectivity with IDEAL's CAT6 Feed-Thru RJ-45 Modular Plugs, featuring innovative open-end technology and gold-plated contacts. These professional-grade network connectors come in a convenient 50-piece card pack, perfect for network installations and maintenance projects.
Advanced Feed-Thru Technology for Precise Installation
The patent-pending open-end Feed-Thru design allows for visual conductor verification before crimping, ensuring accurate installations every time. When paired with the FT-45™ tool, conductors are cut flush with the connector face, delivering a clean, professional finish.
Installation Benefits
Pre-crimping conductor order verification
Enhanced conductor positioning for optimal contact
These single-piece connectors utilize the same assembly process for both CAT5e and CAT6 applications, eliminating the need for special assembly procedures or multiple components. The streamlined design simplifies installation while maintaining professional-grade performance standards.
Les connecteurs à traversée ouverte offrent plusieurs avantages par rapport aux connecteurs à extrémité fermée standard. L'ordre des conducteurs peut être vérifié avant le sertissage. Les conducteurs qui traversent le connecteur sont insérés suffisamment pour être percés par la broche située en dessous. Le câble peut être poussé ou tiré dans le connecteur pour s'assurer que les paires torsadées sont aussi proches que possible des contacts de la broche et que la gaine est bien en place au-delà du dispositif de soulagement de tension principal pour une connexion sécurisée. Un design breveté permet aux conducteurs d'être coupés à ras de la face d'extrémité du connecteur lorsqu'ils sont utilisés avec l'outil FT-45™. Les connecteurs CAT5e et CAT6 sont tous les deux des connecteurs monoblocs qui utilisent le même processus d'assemblage, pas d'assemblage spécial ou de pièces multiples pour le CAT6.

Questions fréquemment posées
The IDEAL 85-376 features an innovative open-end Feed-Thru design with gold-plated contacts and built-in strain relief. Key advantages include the ability to verify conductor order before crimping, push-through conductor design for optimal twisted pair positioning, and compatibility with the FT-45 tool for flush conductor cutting. The connectors are single-piece units that work for both CAT5e and CAT6 applications, requiring no special assembly or multiple pieces for CAT6 installation.
Each package of IDEAL 85-376 CAT6 Feed-Thru RJ-45 Modular Plugs contains 50 connectors per card.
The IDEAL 85-376 is an RJ-45 Network Male connector featuring gold-plated contacts. Each connector has 1 x RJ-45 Network Male configuration, designed for network cable termination with superior conductivity and durability thanks to the gold plating.
The Feed-Thru design offers several key advantages: it allows users to verify conductor order before crimping, ensures conductors are inserted far enough to be properly pierced by the contact pins, and enables the cable to be pushed or pulled to optimize twisted pair positioning near the pin contacts. Additionally, the jacket can be properly seated beyond the primary strain relief for a secure connection.
While these connectors can be terminated with standard RJ-45 crimping tools, they are specifically designed to work with the FT-45™ tool, which enables the conductors to be cut flush with the end face of the connector through a patent-pending design feature.
Yes, these connectors are designed to work with both CAT5e and CAT6 cables. They feature a single-piece design that uses the same assembly process for both categories, eliminating the need for special assembly procedures or multiple pieces when working with CAT6 cables.
