RJ45 jacks snap
into place without tools
Novel 10G-compliant tool-free RJ45 snap-in jacks provide quick and efficient product termination
Brand-Rex has developed a novel line of 10G-compliant tool-free RJ45 snap-in jacks that provide quick and efficient product termination. With superior quality and modern styling the snap-in-jacks enable termination time to be halved compared with other jacks. The design uses a curved lever helping to stagger the termination force on each insulation displacement connector (IDC) in turn.

Unlike other jacks that claim easy termination, the Brand-Rex snap-in-jack can genuinely be terminated using only comfortable finger force.
An optimised lacing system is used where the pairs are opened on pointed pillars to exactly the minimum amount required.
There is no need to pre-open a loop to lace a pair, reducing possible 'noise'.
Tests prove this rapid installation method is 100% faster than normal jacks allowing for reduced installation costs and labour.
The snap-in-jacks do not need to be terminated on a flat surface, they are easy to terminate when held in the hands and there is no need to trim wires after termination.
Performance is not affected by length of the wire tails.
The translucent lever allows for easy inspection after termination.
The narrow width (18.3mm) profile RJ45 tool-free snap-in-jack range includes Cat6A, Cat6 and Cat5e variants packaged in boxes of 12.
Retermination is easy should the cabling system need to be re-arranged.
The jacks can be installed to fit 24 into a 1U panel, or two in a Euro-style outlet.
