Triton RJ-45 wire connector 26.99.0371, silver, polycarbonate housing, zinc contacts, 11.7×67.8×13 mm

Triton RJ-45 wire connector 26.99.0371 is a silver-coloured modular RJ-45 connector designed for terminating Ethernet network cables. The connector body is made of polycarbonate and uses zinc contacts to ensure electrical connection; it meets RoHS requirements. The compact dimensions (11.7 × 67.8 × 13 mm) and integrated cable manager make the connector suitable for Cat6/Class E installations where a shielded, tool-free termination is required.

Advantages

The polycarbonate housing offers mechanical durability while maintaining a lightweight form factor, and zinc contacts provide reliable conductivity and resistance to wear. The built-in cable manager supports round solid and stranded cables in the specified AWG ranges and enables pair management according to common colour codes. A strain relief with cable tie and a transparent dust cup and boot reduce stress on the termination and help protect contacts from contamination. The product's silver finish and compact size make it suitable for tight installations.

Suitable for

• Field termination of Cat6/Class E Ethernet cables
• Shielded RJ-45 installations requiring a tool-free connector
• Network repairs and on-site cable finishing
• Environments where compact connectors and strain relief are needed

How to use

Prepare the cable by stripping the outer jacket to expose pairs and trim to the recommended length. Arrange wire pairs according to either TIA-568A or TIA-568B colour coding and insert them into the integrated cable manager. Push the cable into the connector until it seats fully and engage the strain relief with the cable tie to secure the cable. Fit the transparent dust cup and boot to protect the contacts. No specialized tools are required for termination; follow standard installation practices for shielded Cat6 terminations to ensure correct contact and grounding where applicable.

Usage recommendations

Use with cables within the specified outer diameter and conductor sizes to ensure reliable performance. For installations requiring full shield continuity, verify proper grounding of the connector and cable shield. Inspect the contact area for contamination before final assembly and avoid excessive bending at the termination point to maintain signal integrity.
