helos Cat 8.1 connettore in metallo 263837 — connettore modulare RJ45 schermato, 5 varianti

helos Cat 8.1 metal connector 263837 is a fully shielded modular RJ45 plug designed for Category 8.1 cabling. The metal housing with gold-plated contacts supports high-frequency transmission up to 2000 MHz and data rates up to 40 Gbit/s for links up to 30 m. The connector accepts conductors from AWG22 to AWG26 and is compatible with PoE, PoE+ and higher PoE power delivery standards. Five mechanical variants are available and the product meets ISO/IEC 11801-1:2017, ANSI/TIA-568-C.2.1 and IEC 60603-7 requirements while complying with RoHS 2.0 and REACH.

Advantages

Fully shielded metal housing provides improved EMI protection and reliable grounding for high-frequency Cat 8.1 applications. Gold-plated contacts ensure low contact resistance and long-term signal integrity. Tool-free, field-terminable design with a cut-and-clamp (insulation displacement) termination method enables quick on-site assembly without special crimp tools. Compatibility with AWG22–AWG26 conductor sizes and five available variants makes the connector suitable for a range of installation practices.

Suitable for

• Professional data centers and server rooms requiring 40 Gbit/s links up to 30 m
• High-frequency Cat 8.1 structured cabling for backbone and patching
• Environments needing shielded connectors to reduce electromagnetic interference
• On-site field termination where tool-free assembly speeds installation

How to use

Prepare the Cat 8.1 twisted-pair cable by stripping the outer jacket to the required length and arranging pairs according to the chosen wiring scheme. Insert the conductors into the RJ45 plug and perform the insulation-displacement termination by pressing the cover to cut and clamp the conductors; no crimp tool is required. Ensure the shield is properly connected to the metal housing for grounding. Verify the assembled connector and test the link with appropriate Cat 8 test equipment to confirm continuity and performance up to specified frequency and data-rate limits.

Recommendations

Use this helos Cat 8.1 metal connector for short, high-speed links (up to 30 m) in shielded installations. Verify conductor size (AWG22–AWG26) and follow certified testing procedures after termination to ensure compliance with Cat 8.1 performance requirements.
