Modular RJ45 8P8C End Plug Connector MACLEAN MCTV-663, 100 pieces

MACLEAN MCTV-663 modular RJ45 8P8C end plug connector pack of 100 is designed for terminating Ethernet cables used in wired LAN installations. These modular plugs provide a standard physical interface for 8-position, 8-contact network cables and are suitable for assembly, repair and replacement of connectors on Cat5e and Cat6 cables. The pack contains 100 individual end plugs compatible with typical crimping tools and offers a practical supply for installers and technicians working on structured cabling projects.

Advantages

These modular RJ45 end plugs deliver a compact and standardized termination for twisted-pair cables, ensuring reliable electrical contact and mechanical retention when crimped correctly. Supplied in a bulk pack of 100, they reduce the need for frequent reordering on job sites and support efficient cable assembly workflows. The connectors are compatible with common cable diameters and conductor arrangements used in Cat5e and Cat6 installations.

Suitable for

• Terminating Cat5e and Cat6 UTP/STP Ethernet cables
• On-site cable assembly and repair work
• Structured cabling projects in offices and data closets
• Network hardware setup where custom-length patch cables are required

Key specifications

• Connector type: modular RJ45, 8 positions / 8 contacts (8P8C)
• Pack quantity: 100 pieces
• Compatible cable categories: Cat5e, Cat6
• Contact arrangement: 8-contact gold-plated or corrosion-resistant contact surface (standard for signal reliability)
• Suitable conductor types: solid and stranded twisted-pair conductors
• Typical cable diameter compatibility: standard Ethernet cable outer diameters used in Cat5e/Cat6

How to use

Strip the outer jacket of the Ethernet cable to expose the twisted pairs, separate and align the conductors according to the chosen wiring standard (T568A or T568B). Trim the conductors to an even length and insert them fully into the modular plug so each conductor reaches its respective contact. Use a compatible RJ45 crimping tool to compress the plug onto the cable until the strain relief and contacts are secured. Verify continuity and wiring order with a cable tester before final installation.

Usage recommendations

Use a quality crimping tool sized for RJ45 8P8C plugs and perform a continuity test after termination. For best results, match the plug type to the cable (solid vs. stranded) and avoid over-stripping the jacket to maintain the cable twist as close to the contact as possible to preserve signal integrity.
