Platinum Tools 90170 10GIG Termination Kit

Product Description

The PLATINUM TOOLS 90170 is a 10GIG termination kit designed for high-speed structured cabling installations. It provides the tooling and components needed to terminate Cat6A and comparable high-bandwidth cables to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance. Low-crosstalk, precision termination is critical at these speeds, and this kit is built to meet those demands. Licensed electricians, low-voltage technicians, and network cabling professionals use this kit during new construction, retrofit, and infrastructure upgrade projects.

The 90170 is suited for commercial and residential structured wiring environments where 10GbE connectivity is required. It covers termination work at patch panels, keystones, and wall outlets. The kit format consolidates the necessary components into a single package, reducing the risk of missing pieces on the job site during a pull-and-terminate workflow.

Key Features

• Supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet termination requirements
• Kit format includes termination components in a single package
• Designed for use by low-voltage and structured cabling technicians
• Appropriate for Cat6A and high-bandwidth cable termination applications
• Unit of measure is each (EA), sold individually

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style termination solution for 10GbE structured cabling systems requiring high-performance wire termination.

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 network equipment before terminating patch panels or outlets. Follow manufacturer instructions for maintaining pair twist as close to the termination point as possible, as untwist length directly affects 10GbE performance. Inspect completed terminations with a cable certifier to verify compliance with 10GbE performance thresholds.
