The IDEAL® feed-through cat 6 8P8C (eight position/eight contact) modular plug connector is the first feed-through style connector and tool solution to offer a flush cut of the excess conductor to the face of the modular plug. A patent pending design enables conductors to be cut flush with the end face of the connector when used with the FT-45™ tool (30-495). The flush cut eliminates inadvertent contact among adjacent conductors or with the mating jack. conductor spacing is maintained for reliable performance in PoE and data applications.
