EFB Elektronik 88035.2 Connettore RJ45 Cat.8 Class I da cablare in campo AWG22-27 pressofuso in zinco schermato

The EFB Elektronik 88035.2 is a high-performance Cat.8 Class I field-assemblable RJ45 plug designed for professional network installers who need to terminate cables on-site without returning to the workshop. Its robust zinc die-cast housing and gold-plated contacts ensure reliable signal integrity at the highest Ethernet speeds.

Advantages

Engineered to meet the demands of Cat.8 installations, this plug supports data transmission up to 40 Gbit/s across frequencies up to 2000 MHz — future-proofing network infrastructure for data centres and high-performance enterprise environments. The shielded (STP/FTP) design, combined with the rigid zinc die-cast shell, provides excellent EMI protection. The IDC termination accepts AWG22–27 solid and stranded conductors with cable diameters from 6.0 to 9.5 mm, and is compatible with both T568A and T568B wiring schemes. Gold-plated contacts (50 microinch) ensure over 750 mating cycles, while the connector supports PoE, PoE+, and 4PPoE (IEEE 802.3af/at/bt).

Suitable for

• Data centre installers requiring Cat.8 certified field-terminatable RJ45 plugs for 25G/40G network connections
• Network engineers terminating shielded Cat.8 patch cables on-site in enterprise environments
• AV and broadcast professionals needing high-bandwidth, shielded connectivity with robust mechanical housings
