FT-45™ Feed-Thru Starter Kit

The Feed-Thru Starter Kit is designed to provide you with our recommended tools and plugs to cut, strip, and terminate IDEAL’s Feed-Thru modular plugs onto twisted pair cables. 

Feed-Thru modular plugs offer several advantages over standard modular RJ-45 plugs such as:

• Verify conductor order prior to trimming
• No exact trim length requirement
• Pair twists pulled near pins minimize excessive untwisting for better termination
• Jacket consistently secured under strain relief for a more secure termination

Ideal for electricians and datacom installers.

Applications: CAT5e|CAT6 twisted pair cable preparation and crimp termination for Feed-Thru Modular Plugs.
