Secomp RJ45 Shielded Connector Category 6A, model 21.17.3099, pack of 10

Secomp RJ45 Shielded Connector Category 6A in a pack of 10 is a shielded modular connector designed for terminating shielded twisted-pair Ethernet cables to meet Category 6A performance. It supports high-speed data transmission up to 10 Gbps where cable shielding continuity and enhanced protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) are required. The connector is intended for professional network installations, patch panels and wall outlets that need reliable Category 6A termination with maintained shielding.

Advantages

The shielded design maintains cable screening continuity for improved EMI/RFI resistance and reduced crosstalk in high-density environments. Category 6A performance enables stable 10 Gbps operation over suitable cabling, while the modular RJ45 format ensures compatibility with standard sockets and patch panels. Supplied as a pack of 10, the connectors provide consistent termination components for multi-point installations and professional deployment.

Suitable for

• Terminating shielded Cat6A Ethernet cables in data centers and server rooms
• Patch panels and keystone jacks where shield continuity is required
• Wall outlets and structured cabling in office or industrial environments
• High-density network racks and professional LAN installations

Key specifications

• Category performance: Category 6A (suitable for 10 Gbps Ethernet over supported cabling)
• Connector type: RJ45 modular, shielded
• Shielding: connector shell provides electrical continuity with cable shield
• Contact material: plated contacts for reliable signal transmission
• Packaging: pack of 10 identical shielded connectors

How to use

Strip the outer jacket and prepare the shielded twisted-pair cable according to the cable manufacturer’s instructions, maintaining the drain wire or foil wrap for connection to the connector shield. Insert wires into the connector following the standard wiring scheme (T568A or T568B) and ensure proper alignment of pairs. Crimp or terminate the connector using appropriate tools or modules designed for shielded RJ45 terminations, ensuring the connector shell contacts the cable shield to preserve continuity. Verify terminations with a cable tester to confirm pair mapping, continuity and performance up to Category 6A.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use these shielded connectors with fully shielded Category 6A cabling and compatible shielded patch panels or outlets. Maintain correct grounding and bonding practices for the overall installation to ensure effective EMI protection and to meet Category 6A performance requirements.
