Platinum Tools 105029 Shielded RJ45 CAT6 Connector

Product Description

The PLATINUM TOOLS 105029 is a shielded RJ45 modular connector designed for use with EZ-EX48 termination systems in CAT6 structured cabling installations. The shielded design provides electromagnetic interference (EMI) protection, making it suitable for environments where signal integrity is critical. This connector is intended for use by low-voltage technicians, network installers, and electricians performing data infrastructure work in commercial and residential settings. It is sold as a single connector unit and is compatible with the EX48 loading bar termination process used across PLATINUM TOOLS EZ-EX product lines.

This shielded RJ45 connector is typically deployed in CAT6 horizontal cable runs, patch cable fabrication, and structured wiring closet terminations. It is suited for installations in commercial office environments, data centers, industrial facilities, and other locations where shielded cabling infrastructure is specified. Low-voltage installers and network technicians are the primary users of this connector in field termination applications.

Key Features

• Compatible with EZ-EX48 load bar termination method for efficient field termination
• Rated for CAT6 structured cabling applications
• Sold individually, allowing flexible quantity ordering for job-specific needs
• Modular connector format suitable for field-terminated patch cables and horizontal runs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style field-termination connector for CAT6 modular structured cabling systems using the EZ-EX48 load bar termination process.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage technician or licensed electrician familiar with TIA-568 structured cabling standards. De-energize any active patch panels or switch ports before handling connectors in live environments. Use the appropriate PLATINUM TOOLS EZ-RJPRO or compatible crimp tool designed for EX48-style connectors to ensure a proper termination. Avoid over-stripping cable jacket or damaging the foil shield drain wire during preparation, as shield continuity is critical to EMI performance.
