Nippon Labs 60CAT8-PG-20P RJ45 CAT.8 Shielded Plug 20pack

SKU CH-RBNW-9N888 MPN 60CAT8-PG-20P

Shielded RJ45 CAT.8 plugs for 22-26AWG cable with gold-plated contacts, supporting 40Gbps and PoE++, pack of 20

  • Product typeRJ45 CAT.8 Shielded Plug
  • DetailsApplicable for 22 to 26AWG Cat.8 Cable Wire OD 1.35 to 1.4 m
  • Key featuresCat.8 RJ45 connectors are designed to work specifically with
  • Supports 40Gbps for high-speed Cat.8 networks
  • Gold-plated contacts resist corrosion and ensure reliable signal
  • Fully shielded housing blocks EMI interference effectively
  • Fits 22-26AWG solid or stranded Cat.8 cable
  • 20-pack supplies enough connectors for multiple runs

Target use and compatibility

These shielded RJ45 plugs are built for terminating Cat.8 cable in 22 to 26AWG sizes. They accept wire outer diameters of 1.35 to 1.4mm and cable jacket diameters of 6.5 to 8.5mm. The connectors work with both solid and stranded conductors and come in a 20pack for multiple runs.

Interface limits

The plugs support 40Gbps throughput, which is four times faster than Cat.6A performance levels. Gold-plated contacts and a fully shielded housing protect against electromagnetic interference and corrosion. They are rated for POE++ applications and carry UL and RoHS compliance.

Installation notes

A crimp tool is required to terminate each connector and a cable stripper is recommended to expose the inner conductors. The wire alignment insert helps organise conductors for efficient termination. Builders without the proper crimp tool or who use cable outside the specified diameter ranges will not achieve reliable connections.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 20-pack or buy single plugs for my Cat.8 cable runs?

The product is sold as a 20-pack of shielded RJ45 plugs. Each plug handles 22~26AWG Cat.8 cable with a wire OD of 1.35~1.4mm and jacket diameter of 6.5~8.5mm. Buying the pack gives you enough connectors for multiple drops or spare terminations.

What does the 40Gbps rating mean when I terminate these plugs on my Cat.8 cable?

The plugs are specified to support 40Gbps transmission on compliant Cat.8 cable. They use gold-plated contacts and a fully shielded housing to maintain signal integrity at that speed, and they also handle PoE++ power delivery without degradation.

Are these standard RJ45 connectors, and what cable sizes do they actually accept?

Yes, they are standard RJ45 8P8C plugs with a 50-micron gold plating and three-prong contacts. They accept solid or stranded conductors from 22 to 26AWG, wire OD 1.35~1.4mm, and overall jacket diameter 6.5~8.5mm. A crimp tool is required for termination.
