Plano Carrying Case
Feed-Thru modular plugs offer several advantages over standard modular RJ-45 plugs such as:
- Verify conductor order prior to trimming
- No exact trim length requirement
- Pair twists pulled near pins minimize excessive untwisting for better termination
- Jacket consistently secured under strain relief for a more secure termination
