Conector de cable RJ-45 ShiverPeaks BS72060-R10

The ShiverPeaks BS72060-R10 Wire Connector RJ-45 is a metallic RJ-45 plug designed for creating reliable Ethernet terminations. Supplied in packs of 10, these connectors are intended for use with stranded or solid network cable where a durable metal-bodied plug is preferred. The metallic housing improves mechanical strength and can contribute to stable signal contact in home LANs, small office networks and professional cabling tasks.

Advantages

The metal construction enhances durability compared with plastic alternatives and helps resist deformation from repeated insertions. A precision-machined contact area and conductive finish promote consistent electrical contact and signal transmission. Supplied in a multi-pack, these connectors reduce the need for frequent reordering when terminating several cables. The standard RJ-45 form factor ensures compatibility with common Ethernet ports and keystone jacks.

Suitable for

• Installing or repairing home Ethernet networks
• Small office and commercial network cabling
• Workshop or field terminations for patch leads
• Making custom-length network cables for routers, switches, and patch panels

Key specifications

• Connector type: RJ-45 plug with metallic housing
• Pack quantity: 10 connectors per pack
• Compatibility: standard 8P8C Ethernet terminations suitable for Cat5e/Cat6 style cables (confirm cable conductor type and diameter before use)
• Material: metal housing with conductive finish for contact stability
• Intended cable types: solid and stranded copper network cable

How to use

Prepare the cable by stripping the outer jacket to expose the eight conductors and arrange them in the required wiring order (T568A or T568B). Trim conductors to the recommended length and insert them straight into the connector until each conductor seats under the contact blades. Use an appropriate crimping tool rated for RJ-45 metal plugs to crimp the connector securely onto the cable, ensuring the shield (if present) and jacket are properly engaged by the plug for mechanical retention. Verify continuity and wiring order with a cable tester before placing the cable into service.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use connectors matched to the cable type and conductor diameter, and employ a crimp tool designed for metallic RJ-45 plugs. Test each terminated cable with a network cable tester to confirm correct pairing and signal integrity. Store unused connectors in a dry environment to prevent corrosion of contact surfaces.
