Questions fréquemment posées
The Platinum Tools 106187C is a high-performance CAT6 network connector featuring a unique 2-piece design system with a staggered loading bar. It's specifically designed for solid conductors and includes 8 conductor mod plugs with RJ-45 male termination. The connector's distinctive feature is its simplified termination process using the loading bar as a stopping point for pair separation, allowing for quick and easy installation.
This connector is designed for specific cable dimensions: it accommodates conductors with an O.D. Range of .044" and features a maximum cable jacket O.D. of .280". It uses 0.30mm (.012) 3-prong contacts and is specifically designed for solid conductors only. The connector is not compatible with stranded cables, making it important to verify your cable type before purchase.
Each package contains 25 connectors packaged in a clamshell container. The clamshell packaging helps protect the connectors during shipping and storage while allowing for easy access and inventory management. This quantity is ideal for both professional installers and projects requiring multiple terminations.
The Platinum Tools 106187C is both RoHS and UL compliant, ensuring it meets environmental and safety standards. The RoHS certification confirms it's environmentally friendly and free from restricted hazardous substances, while the UL compliance ensures it meets safety and quality standards for network connectivity components.
The termination process is straightforward: First, use the staggered loading bar as a guide for pair separation and maintaining proper wiring configuration. Then, flush cut the conductors to length. Finally, slide the assembly into the connector and terminate. This 2-piece system design significantly simplifies the CAT6 termination process compared to traditional connectors.
The connector features gold-plated contacts, which is crucial for maintaining optimal signal transmission and durability. Gold plating provides superior conductivity, corrosion resistance, and long-term reliability for network connections, making these connectors suitable for professional installations requiring high-quality performance.
This connector is unshielded (non-shielded), making it ideal for standard indoor network installations where electromagnetic interference (EMI) is not a significant concern. It's best suited for typical office, home, and commercial environments where standard CAT6 performance specifications are required.
The main advantages include its 2-piece design system for easier termination, staggered loading bar for maintaining proper wire configuration, gold-plated contacts for reliable connectivity, and compatibility with solid conductors. The high-performance design meets CAT6 specifications, while the RoHS and UL compliance ensures safety and environmental standards. The 3-prong contact design also provides secure connections for solid conductors.
