Shielded Feed-Thru RJ45 connectors simplifies assembly by allowing the user to verify the conductors are in the correct order before crimping the connector. This connector has an attached metal shell that is designed to provide a continuous path for the cable shielding to pass through the connector and into the device's shielded port. The connector has internal shield connection points on the top and bottom of the connector for cable foil or drain wire to make contact within the plug. Compatible with twisted pair cables with insulated conductors of 0.040” - 0.048 ” diameter. The single piece design uses a feed-thru style cable preparation leaving about 1" of conductors exposed to feed-thru the plug prior to termination. Shield continuity can be made internally by folding the cable foil over the jacket and making contact with the inside of the connector walls or externally by wrapping the cable drain wire around the base of the jacket strain relief clip.
