Jadaol Ethernet RJ45 Connector - Ethernet Modular Crimp Connectors Plugs 50 Micron Gold Plated - Only for Cat6 30 or 32 AWG Flat Ethernet Cable - 20Pack

Excellent for fixing flat cable and fixing thin wires. Not suitable for regular round cable. Good quality!

Completely frustrated with this product. The clip part is too narrow to hold the flat white casing. As a result, the least amount of pull or tug, the wires come right out of the connector. The clip should hold about a 1/4" of cable to secure the cable from pulling when the connector is pulled out of a plug. Is this a manufacturing defect? I had to use a standard connector for round ethernet cable, so I could use a crimping tool to hold the wires in the connector. Flat wire is great, just can't customize the length. Fortunately the cable is indoors, so I don't have to worry about water getting in the gap between the flat wire and the round connector. Also Jadaol is unreachable. Numerous Google searches, could not find any phone number to the company for Customer Service or an email address. Website www.jadaol.com is invalid.

I cant believe how quick and smooth the process was after trying and failing with RJ45 connectors that were marketed as tool-less. The insert piece that comes with this is easy to push the wires down into with your fingernail then close it and insert it into the larger piece. Then you just push down the metal contacts with a thin/small flathead screwdriver. Took me no more than 15 minutes to fully install both ends after I tried getting other fancier solutions working for over an hour. These are cheaper and less bulky to boot. I put them on an amazon basics flat Cat7 cable that I routed through my walls and had to cut the ends off of for easier routing and smaller holes in the wall.

They’re fiddly, but they work. It took fine-tipped tweezers and excellent eyesight to get the conductors in the right tracks/channels. A magnifying glass may be needed for some people to see the channels clearly. Thankfully the insulation on mine was just wide enough to get them to stay in the channels after pressing them in. The product listing says 30-32 AWG, but my Cat6 is labeled 28 AWG and it worked fine. The jacket on my cable also fit into the connector perfectly. The connector bodies are very short. Haven’t seen connectors this short in decades. I had to make sure to cut very little jacket off to make sure it would still extend into the connector. That made the length of the unjacketed conductors very short, which made it harder to get them into the channels. These connectors would be better if they were up to twice as long. Lastly, these are expensive. I paid 45¢ per connector for a package of 20, which is almost 10 times what I last paid for regular RJ45 connectors. Granted, I bought 400 of those at a time. I don’t want to buy that many of these, but I would appreciate an option to buy 50-100 for a lower price. I’d happily pay 10-20¢ per connector for these.

Ok, I bought these because I am running a flat cable across 3 floors. We rent so I cannot drill holes but I can hot glue gun a cable up on each floor. the cat6 cable I bought is one that my wife approved since it is almost not visible especially when we paint over it. but the problem is I need specific sizes without having large balled extra cables. Well, I cut one not knowing that the wires are 32 AWG, wow that is thin. These were the only connectors I found that even stated they worked with 30 AWG. So I placed the order and got it out here in Frankfurt Germany about 1 week later. So they are very small for my big old hands and had to use a magnifying glass just to be able to see the tracks where the wires end up in. I just kept repeating to myself "Happy wife happy life". Now just to help you out, each connector is two pieces I call them INNER and OUTER. Once you have the wires laid out in the INNER tracks and you folded it closed it is smooth sailing. 1) Cut the wire shielding about an inch long (you will need the extra wire to manipulate them into the tracks.) 2) get a magnifying glass on a stand. you will need both hands (trust me) 3) Lay some double-sided tape where you can push down the end of the wire that you laid down in a track. it will help keep it in place as you go to the next wire. 4) Use at least 1 pair of tweezers. 2 works better. Once you laid the wires out in their tracks and you closed the cover of the INNER cut the wires right up to the INNER plastic. Now place the INNER inside the OUTER and crimp being careful that the crimping teeth really get inside the tracks. this may be because I have a cheap crimping tool but I had to re-crimp correctly and then my cable tester read correctly. With some patience, you will also get a good result. Good Luck.

There are no holes going through the connector so you can't route cables in. You need to cut all your cables to the same length, line them up, and somehow push them up to the end of the connector. Other reviews suggest there's supposed to be a small plastic guide. There is not. Absolutely unusable and a waste of time.

My dog bit the flat ethernet cable that goes from 2nd floor to the basement. I had to fix it if I don‘t want to open any walls again. It was long enough so I could shorten it. This RJ45 fits perfectly onto a flat cable!! The little plastic insert makes it easy to arrange the wires still little tricky. Once this is done close the clamp and push it into the “big“ connector. Then use your crimping tool or, like me, use a small flat head screwdriver. Done. Can only recommend.

These Jadaol connectors are even better than advertised. Generic RJ45 connectors make you fight to get prongs to penetrate wires correctly, but these Jadaol connectors are made specifically for 32AWG cable, and, even though the description does not mention it, they ship with neat little cable combs help you insert and get good crimps.
