The network infrastructure of a building is based on the interconnection of passive and active elements. A standardized network interface was designed for this purpose. It’s called 8P8C or RJ45.
All connections are achieved due to the patch cords – Ethernet cable terminated with RJ45 plugs on both sides. In NIKOMAX, we recommend choosing factory-made ones, because of their test-confirmed quality. But sometimes there are situations when the cable is required to be terminated on a site. For example:
- When you need to connect a camera or other equipment directly with a solid cable
- When you need to lay cable through hermetic entries, which are too narrow for the patch cords
- When building temporary lines
- When you need to make a patch cord by yourself
Needless to say that in those cases on-site termination has to be performed perfectly because the reliable connection is at stake. Therefore, there are some nuances to consider: straightening conductors, their right order, precise termination, etc.
Usually, it’s hard to crimp a standard plug on the first try. When all things are happening inside of a plastic plug body, it’s quite a challenge to see if the conductor’s length and order are right or not. But with pass-through plugs, this process will be much easier.
We’re happy to announce that NIKOMAX’s product range now includes brand new pass-through RJ45 plugs.
What’s the main advantage of this product, you might ask?
It’s plug’s special design. The absence of an inside separator allows conductors to pass through a plug, thus making the whole process faster and more convenient.
For termination, you will require a special tool – crimper NMC-5684PT. Together these guys will do everything in the best way possible!
