This standard Cat6 RJ45 modular connector is designed to terminate flat network cable or 8P8C telephone line cord. The connector contains two metal "teeth" that hold the wire in place giving a reliable connection. Easy to terminate, these connectors are useful for creating your own custom length cables.
An RJ45 also named 8P8C connector is most commonly used in network and telecommunication applications. It can also be used for other data type communications such as serial.
What is the difference between a solid and stranded connector?
A solid RJ45 connector has 3 teeth that pinch the solid wire to ensure good contact. A stranded RJ45 connector contains 2 teeth that bite the strands to hold the wire in place. Stranded is typically used when you are making your own patch cables.
