LogiLink MP0080 RJ45 connector

The LogiLink MP0080 is a CAT.8.1 field-terminable RJ45 connector engineered for high-speed networking installations. Crafted with a grey stainless steel body, it supports AWG 22 and 24 conductors and accepts cable with an outer diameter of approximately 8.5 mm. The connector is intended for terminating shielded high-frequency cabling on-site to deliver consistent signal transmission and mechanical durability for advanced data networks.

Advantages

The stainless steel housing provides mechanical strength and electromagnetic shielding while maintaining a compact form factor suitable for tight installation spaces. Field-terminable design allows technicians to create terminations without factory-prepared plugs, reducing dependence on pre-made cables and enabling flexible onsite customization. Compatibility with AWG 22/24 wires and the specified outer diameter ensures correct fit for common CAT.8.1 and high-performance shielded cables, supporting reliable contact and reduced signal loss.

Suitable for

• On-site termination of CAT.8.1 shielded network cables
• High-speed data center and backbone connections
• Professional installations requiring robust shielding and mechanical durability
• Situations needing customized cable lengths or repairs

Key specifications

• Category: CAT.8.1 field-terminable RJ45 connector
• Body material and color: Grey stainless steel
• Supported conductor sizes: AWG 22, AWG 24
• Accepted cable outer diameter: approx. 8.5 mm
• Designed for shielded high-frequency twisted-pair cables

How to use

Prepare the cable by stripping the outer jacket and shielding according to the connector's recommended dimensions, exposing the individual twisted pairs without nicking conductors. Insert the pairs into the connector following the correct pinout for the intended wiring standard, ensure full seating of conductors, then secure the connector body and shielding clamp per the manufacturer's assembly method. Verify continuity and pair integrity with appropriate cable testers before finalizing the installation. Follow standard safety precautions and cable-handling best practices to avoid damage to conductors and shield.

Recommendations

Use this connector with properly shielded CAT.8.1 or compatible high-performance cables and use appropriate termination tools to ensure consistent contact and shielding continuity. Test each terminated link for performance parameters relevant to your network (continuity, pair mapping, and return loss) before putting links into service.
