Review on 🔌 UL Listed 5-Pack Shielded RJ45 Keystone Jack Coupler Gender Changer by Cable Matters by Aaron Clayton

The tolerances for this connector are very tight. You have to be careful when connecting the cables as the plug seems to be too big for the hole. However, for a shielded connector, this is what I want for good ground/shield continuity. I'm installing a 600MHz Cat6 home network with shielded cable and I use these connectors on my keystone boards due to the price per connector and the significant lack of shielded Cat 6 keystone connectors on the market. You have to connect the cables to shielded Cat 6 connectors (which sucks), but the end result is amazing. I have tested a cable (with a small tester) with 5 pieces of wire with these connectors and they all show as shielded when tested. i order more FYI. shielded path. Most industrial applications choose shielded cable and if you have an old house with patchy electrical wiring I highly recommend it. Shielded cables require shielded plugs and connectors and a shielded patch panel that is grounded to your building ground. If something on the line is not shielded, there is no power continuity to dissipate the EMI picked up by the shield. It's not that much more expensive, and using a good shielded cable system will prevent most signal problems today and help protect your setup in the future when 10 gigabytes becomes a reality.
