Elite Cable Cat5e Shielded RJ45 Modular Plugs are designed to deliver dependable, high performance Ethernet terminations for both solid and stranded Cat5e shielded cable. Featuring a fully shielded metal housing with gold plated contacts, these 8P8C RJ45 connectors help maintain shield continuity, minimize signal loss, and reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) for reliable network performance in demanding residential and commercial installations. The shielded design provides a continuous grounding path through the connector when used with compatible shielded Ethernet cable and networking equipment.
Designed for 24 AWG solid and stranded conductors, these modular plugs provide a secure fit for standard Cat5e shielded Ethernet cable. Each connector includes a wire guide that simplifies conductor alignment, making terminations faster, easier, and more consistent. Whether you're building custom patch cables or terminating bulk Ethernet cable, the precision design helps create reliable connections while reducing installation time.
UL Listed for safety and performance, these shielded RJ45 modular plugs are an excellent choice for structured cabling systems, network closets, data centers, IP security cameras, wireless access points, switches, routers, VoIP phones, and other high speed networking applications. Designed specifically for Cat5e shielded cable, they pair perfectly with Elite Cable shielded bulk Ethernet cable to provide a complete end to end shielded networking solution that delivers dependable performance for years to come.

Q: What is a shielded RJ45 connector used for?
A: A shielded RJ45 connector is designed to terminate shielded Ethernet cable while helping maintain the cable's shielding. It helps reduce electromagnetic interference and provides a more reliable network connection in electrically noisy environments.
Q: Can these connectors be used with both solid and stranded cable?
A: Yes. These Cat5e shielded RJ45 connectors are designed for use with both solid and stranded Cat5e Ethernet cable.
Q: Why should I use a shielded RJ45 connector with shielded cable?
A: Using a shielded RJ45 connector helps preserve the shielding throughout the network connection, improving protection against electromagnetic interference and helping maintain signal integrity.
Q: What does 8P8C mean?
A: 8P8C stands for 8 Position 8 Contact, the standard connector configuration used for Ethernet networking. All eight conductors are terminated to provide a complete network connection.
Q: What is the wire guide used for?
A: The included wire guide helps align the conductors before crimping, making termination easier while improving consistency and reducing the chance of wiring errors.
Q: Are these connectors compatible with PoE devices?
A: Yes. When properly terminated, these connectors are suitable for PoE, PoE+, and PoE++ applications using compatible Cat5e shielded Ethernet cable.
Q: Can these connectors be used with Cat6 cable?
A: These connectors are specifically designed for Cat5e shielded cable. For the best fit and performance, we recommend using connectors that match the cable category and conductor size.
Q: What applications are these connectors commonly used for?
A: These connectors are commonly used for IP security cameras, wireless access points, network switches, patch cables, VoIP phones, industrial networking, and other Ethernet installations using shielded Cat5e cable.
Q: Why are the contacts gold plated?
A: Gold plated contacts help resist corrosion while providing a dependable electrical connection for consistent long term network performance.
Q: Are these connectors suitable for professional installations?
A: Yes. These Cat5e shielded RJ45 connectors are trusted by network installers, electrical contractors, IT professionals, and low voltage technicians for residential and commercial Ethernet installations.
