Draadverbinder RJ-45 Gembird LC-PTF-01/10

The Gembird LC-PTF-01/10 is a pack of 10 modular RJ-45 (8P8C) wire connectors designed for F/UTP (FTP) shielded twisted-pair cables. The connectors feature a pass-through design that allows each conductor to be inserted completely through the plug and exit at the front, making it easy to verify correct wiring order and to push the connector down over the cable jacket for a tighter rear seating. Gold-plated 2-fork internal contacts support both solid and stranded LAN cables and help improve electrical contact and performance. Connectors are available in brown, silver and transparent finishes and each connector weighs approximately 17 g.

Advantages

The pass-through construction enables visual verification of conductor order and eliminates wasted crimps by allowing precise positioning before crimping. Pulling the connector tightly over the cable jacket shortens the untwisted wire length between the contacts and the twist, which reduces signal degradation and increases reliability. Gold-plated 2-fork contacts provide consistent contact for both solid and stranded conductors up to 24 AWG.

Key specifications

How to use

Prepare the cable by removing the outer jacket and maintaining as much of the shield and twist as practical. Insert each conductor fully through the connector so the wires protrude from the front; verify the wiring order (e.g., T568A or T568B) visually before seating the conductors into the contact slots. Push the connector down over the cable jacket to reduce the exposed untwisted length, then crimp using a compatible RJ-45 modular plug crimping tool. After crimping, check the termination and continuity with a cable tester.

Recommendations

Use with cables up to 24 AWG and shielded F/UTP (FTP) types; if working with shielded cable ensure proper grounding of the shield at the connector ends. Verify wiring order before each crimp and use a quality crimping tool designed for modular RJ-45 plugs to ensure reliable terminations.
