Pluggable RJ-45 connector speeds up Ethernet wiring

The 8-pole 750-975 Ethernet connector from Wago Corp. is a pluggable RJ-45 connector that significantly decreases the time needed for Ethernet wiring.

Unlike traditional Ethernet connectors, the 750-975 features insulation displacement contacts, which provide tool-free, in-the-field conductor wiring. The new connector is said to reduce Ethernet wiring time by as much as 80 percent.

The pluggable RJ-45 connector offers IP 20 protection for conductors ranging in size from AWG# 26-23 while color-coded IDC terminations provide instant conductor recognition. The connector accommodates both shielded (UTP) and unshielded (STP) conductors and the transmission rates meet Category 5e requirements (according to ISO/IEC 11801 and EN 50173-1) for high signal integrity. The 750-975 connector contacts are vibration-proof, pull-out resistant, gas-tight and can be re-wired.
