trueCABLE Cat6A Extra Large RJ45 Pass Through Connectors, Staggered, Unshielded (UTP) Modular Plug, UL Listed, EZ Crimp End, Gold Plated 3 Prong 8P8C, 20 Pieces

good value, work as expected for our CAT6 LAN expansion. All connectors working fine.

I was researching when I found TrueCABLE and their library of videos, information and products. I received help on 3 occasions prior to a purchase or entering an email. I don't encounter companies of this caliber often, so was it ever refreshing. Since I have purchased everything needed from them including tools. This network upgrade was way more than I ever bargained for, but with their knowledge resources and quality products, the job is almost complete (1 last cable to pull), I've come away better for it. They have earned my business and endorsement without reservation.

I've been looking for a while for a RJ45 end that will work with the thicker coated direct burial wire and this one does the job perfectly. No other cat6 connectors that I've tried with this cable will push through or even get where I have a reliable crimp, this does. They are kind of expensive, but worth it IMO.

I have been working in IT for almost 20 years. I got very good at trimming the CAT cable wires to the correct size and then forcing them into the old style RJ45 connectors and crimping them. However, I purchased the trueCable cutter/crimper tool awhile back and started using these passthrough connectors. It is much faster and easier to use then the old way.

I had zero issues using these. No miscrimps as of now

NEW EDIT: After not hearing anything from this review I found TrueCable's direct contact on their website (truecable.com for reference) and sent a very similar message to the one here. The NEXT DAY Don, presumably the face of the company, calls me directly and makes it right! The problem IS NOT with the heads. It's actually the cable used. But my cable is known to be good you say? How you ask? Well, TrueCable branded these heads as XL meant for a thicker conductor cable (for example the TruCable CAT6A Plenum Unsheilded with an insulated conductor diameter of 1.08mm). The cable I'm using (and perhaps many of you here with this issue) has too small of a conductor diameter causing the issues. Naively myself (and perhaps a few among us) figured 23AWG is 23AWG and that's that! I mean, not many companies making / selling cable lists the internal diameter of their conductors down to the MM. The reality is, even for a seasoned 15 year veteran like myself, there ARE in fact oversights. This was one of them! Don from TrueCable is sending me over the correct heads for my current Cable Matters CAT6 cable to replace what I bought here. I don't know about your experience but this is the first time a real person who knows what they're talking about from the company you're buying equipment and consumables from calls you, knows what's going on, how to fix it and makes it right for you. I was a Klein only guy for years. That has changed! Thank you Don and TrueCable!OLD REDACTED: I'm using these with Cable Matters CAT6 UL Listed CM Rated 23AWG solid copper wire, a Klein VDV226-110 crimper and testing them with the Klein LAN Scout Jr 2. About half the time after the initial crimp one of the two heads has failed requiring I go back, cut the head and recrimp. The ones that have survived the initial crimp tend to fail if manipulated a few times requiring I cut the head and recrimp. I consider the heads that survived or that have been fixed a failure waiting to happen. Perhaps it's the teeth used or the design of the head but something is causing these to be garbage. If you're on site with these DO NOT use them. If you're at home...pray they don't fail.

I used these at a friends house to make Ethernet cables and so far its been great.

Very easy to use
