Ecm Industries Llc GMC-88M5 RJ45 Cat5 Modular Plug 8 Pack

Product Description

The ECM INDUSTRIES LLC GMC-88M5 is a clear plastic RJ45 Cat5 modular plug used for terminating network and twisted pair cable ends. Rated as an 8-position, 8-contact connector, it is compatible with CAT-5e twisted pair cable and sold in a pack of 8. This plug is a standard crimp-on style connector installed by low-voltage technicians, network cabling contractors, and electricians during structured wiring runs. Clear housing allows visual confirmation of wire seating before crimping, reducing termination errors on the job.

This modular plug is suited for residential and light commercial structured cabling applications. It is used when field-terminating ethernet patch cables, network drops, and data lines that require a reliable RJ45 connection. The CAT-5e compatibility makes it appropriate for 10/100/1000BASE-T ethernet installations and similar low-voltage data wiring work. The 8-pack format supports small batch terminations or service repairs without excess inventory overhead.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by low-voltage technicians or licensed electricians working under applicable structured cabling standards such as TIA-568. Power down or disconnect any active network equipment before terminating cable ends. Use a calibrated RJ45 crimping tool to ensure full contact seating. Inspect wire order and seating through the clear housing before crimping to avoid mis-terminations.
