CAT7 Keystone Jack Ratchet Zip-tie Design, 10Gbps 600Mhz Shielded Zinc-Alloy RJ45 Tool-Free Keystone Connector 12-Pack

I used these to wire my entire house and couldn't be happier. These CAT7 Keystone Jacks are incredibly easy to install, and the final look is fantastic. They've added a real touch of "charm" to my home-the ethernet outlets look clean, professional, and high-end. If you're doing a home networking project, don't hesitate on these.

Ran cat 7 in my whole house every room and entertainment area has a keystone or two in it. Didn't have a single issue

For some reason, my network testing tool shows a much longer distance than the actual cable when these ends are used. Rated as CAT7, which I expected to be decent quality, but my 300ft cable suddenly measured as 475 feet when I used these ends on the cable. Was used with outdoor rated cable ran inside pipe from a customer's house to his steel building, so it was out of the weather 100%. Replaced these with a different set of jacks and my customer's problem went away. There has to be high resistance on these jacks because when I used a different set of 6A jacks, the test passed on my network tester.

These might well be the very best female RJ45's I've ever used or even seen. Truly well made and sturdy I highly recommend these. I used them to get more length on a starlink cable. Fantastic. My one complaint is that they came with zero instructions. Now, I've used ethernet parts for something like 40 years. I know how to follow a colour-coded wiring spec. These support both versions of the spec, so the colour-coding isn't totally intuitive. I kept a diagram handy so that I ensured that wires were correctly placed. I highly recommend you have a wiring spec handy so that you get the right placements. that said, I didn't realize until I messed around with these wrong for 20 minutes that all one has to do is to seat the wires in the cap. It's got holders for each of the 8 wires and a place once seated for the ground cable. All very nice. But it took me doing it wrong for 20 minutes before I realized that installation is incredibly easy, straightforward, and elegant. Once I had it, less that 2 minutes for each attachment. You thread your stripped wires through the cap (nice separation between sides of the duplex). The place each wire in it's spot in the cap. then press fit. then you close the ends over the cable and cinch it closed. very neat. I wish I hadn't had to figure it out for myself - which is why 4 instead of 5 stars.

Had allot of trouble with getting the wires fully seated in the coupler. This uses a clip that you push into the coupler to seat the wires. I have had to use a dozen of these and I had to fiddle with every single one to get them all to make contact. I thought the clip system would be a simple solution but it turned out not to be that great. I’m going back to the female to female couplers because I would rather just clip on Ethernet connectors with my tool than struggle with this again.
