How to use

Slide the boot over the cable before attaching the RJ45 connector, then crimp the connector and slide the boot forward until it snaps onto the connector body. Ensure the integrated strain relief seats correctly around the cable to provide protection at the connector junction. For existing terminated cables, remove the connector if possible, fit the boot and re-terminate, or use boots designed for aftermarket installation if re-termination is not feasible.

Recommendations

Choose boots in different colours for quick visual identification of cable functions or destinations. Avoid exceeding the specified 9.4 kg load and inspect boots periodically for damage in high-use environments.
