Shielded rj45 cat6 cat 6a connectors Gold Plated Cat6 Pass Through Connectors 23awg Cat6 Shielded Cat6/Cat6a Modular Plugs Ethernet Ends (60 PCS)

Good amount of high quality heads for a decent price. Used with 23AWG cat 6a and worked fine, even for a beginner in termination. Contact has been perfect ever time so far and I have used dozens.

Quality product and great customer service. Connectors won't fit over larger cable jackets like the Monoprice Cat6a cable I was using, but it works well for the regular Cat6 UTP that I also use.

If anyone is having difficulty with these using thicker gauge wire(I'm using 23 awg) I seem to have found a method to make these easy to push the wire into.I haven't wired my own ethernet cables in some time and when I needed to I had the old type non-pass-through available. with the old style, you simply lined up the wires in order and pushed them in. Since the holes were in a straight line this worked just fine. This new type has the holes staggered and coming from the old ways I was trying to do it that way. Every time one wire in the group would jump to the wrong adjacent slot/hole. To fix this stagger the wires as you push them in. Simply line them up in order as you would but before inserting into the connector push each of the whites slightly back to make the group staggered. This has so far worked brilliantly for me. If this was already known then that is on me for not knowing. Hope this helps someone struggling with these like I was.

I've crimped about 8 of these in a row and every single one has had a bad crimp in the connector. The twisted pairs are also incredibly hard to insert as the wire's have to be inserted through a staggered W formation rather than just a straight line.I used the super cheap plastic ones that came with my $15 tester kit and haven't had a single issue since. Stay away from these, waste of time and money.

The quality of the rj45s is okay. About 5% had a pin fall out in transport that you have to put back in. That's made up for the reliability of the crimp and the fact I cab use cat6a shielded cable. The ez pass routs are slightly offset from each other up and down so thicker strands work just fine. Regular cat6 works as well

I have a little bit of experience terminating my own ethernet cables and I've never nailed it. Ever. It's been a few years and I had another ethernet wiring job to do and decided I'd make life easier and get pass through connectors. I got a different brand earlier and had a miserable failure rate in success. I got these Sabra connectors and lo-and-behold there's an internal comb to help guide the wires. I terminated 5 cables with these connectors. I needed 10 connectors. I used only 10 connectors. I wasted zero.Important to note that you make sure to grab a crimping tool that are made for pass through connectors. With the other brand's connectors I just assumed something in the connector would snip the excess for me but I assumed wrong. Had to delay my project a day to wait for my pass through specific crimpers.

These connectors look great and worked for terminating shielded CAT6 cables. However, when using a Klein passthrough crimper, the strain latch would sometimes break, and the cable ends wouldn’t fully cut off cleanly, unlike with regular plastic connectors. The connectors still function well overall, but be prepared to trim the ends manually if you're using passthrough crimpers.

Disappointed that I could not use these on the shielded cat6 burial cable I bought. Just too tight to use on 23ga wire. My cheaper wire worked just fine. Bought shielded copper wire for a tower camera installation close to a transmitting antenna and these connectors looked perfect for the job.
