Product Description
The Klein Tools VDV826-705 is a 50-pack of shielded RJ45 CAT6A pass-through connectors, built for CAT6A shielded twisted pair (STP) cable and large-conductor CAT6.
What "pass-through" means for termination
The conductors run all the way through the connector body before crimping. You can see the wire order before you commit, which helps catch a miswire before it's sealed into the plug — useful when you're terminating a run of patch panel ports or a string of IP cameras and don't want a callback.
Shielded for noisy runs
The metal housing is shielded, which suits CAT6A STP cable specifically — it's a different job to unshielded connectors and shouldn't be swapped in on UTP runs. That shielding is what gives protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI), relevant where data cable shares a route with mains, lighting circuits, or other CCTV/network cabling.
Network performance
These connectors support Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications, with gold-plated contacts for the connection itself. What speed you actually get still depends on the rest of the link — cable category, switch ports, and NVR (network video recorder) or patch panel hardware at each end.
Where they fit
Klein lists these as suitable for CCTV IP cameras, network switches, and patch panels — so they cover most points in a structured cabling run from camera back to recorder or server room.
Pack size
Supplied 50 to a pack, sized for a proper installation run rather than a single repair.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do these work with unshielded CAT6 cable?
They're shielded connectors designed for CAT6A STP (shielded twisted pair) cable and large CAT6 conductors, per the manufacturer listing — not specified for standard unshielded cable.
What's the benefit of a pass-through design when crimping?
Conductors pass fully through the connector body so you can check wire order and alignment before crimping, which helps ensure accurate termination.
Are these rated for 10 Gigabit Ethernet?
Yes, Klein Tools lists the VDV826-705 as supporting both Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet network applications.
How many connectors come in the pack?
This listing is a 50-pack of connectors, sized for a full installation run rather than a single repair job.
