Basically, we've got a full run of custom color options on these Cat6 IDC connectors — red, yellow, blue, green, and black — but what sealed it for me was the 45-degree angled design, which makes cable management in tight patch panels a lot less frustrating than the straight-in variants we've been stuck with.
It handles 22-26AWG cable just fine, and the gold plating on the pins is 3μm thick, which is better than the standerd 1-2μm you see on most commodity jacks; for a structured cabling enviroment where insertion cycles hit 750 times or more, that extra thickness actually matters for long-term contact reliability.
The IDC clip materail is tinned phosphor bronze with nickel plating, so punching cycles are rated at 250 times minimum — we usually see closer to 300 before any degradation, but I'd plan around the spec, not the anecdote.
One thing to be honest about: this isn't suited for outdoor or extreme temperature runs, since the operating range is -25°C to 60°C, but for interior Cat6 and E class structured cabling, it's well within TIA/EIA-568B.2-1 and ISO/IEC 11801 standard — the UL 94V-0 rating on the PC housing is a nice safety check for plenum spaces.
We've ordered these before from the same line, and what you don't always think to ask is that the 45-degree angle actually reduces cable bend radius stress at the back of the jack, which is a common failure point in high-density racks; most buyers go with blue or black for color-coding, but yellow stands out better for troubleshooting.
Teh suplier typically has stock on these, but confirm lead time if you need more than 500 units or so — MOQ is lower than that, but custom color batches can add 2-3 weeks if they're out of a specific resin.
Yes, you can order any of the five colors—red, yellow, blue, green, or black—even for smaller MOQs. Just let us know which color and quantity you need, and we'll confirm availability.
For standard color options, lead time is usually 7-10 business days. If you need a custom color not listed, we'll need to factor in about 2-3 extra weeks for material sourcing and production.
Absolutely, we can supply a UL 94V-0 certification or test report upon request. Just mention it when placing your order, and we'll include the documentation with the shipment.
Yes, the gold plating is a consistent 3μm on all contacts, regardless of the connector color. The plating specs don't change with color—it's standard across the whole HKJ-801M-C6 line.
Store them in a cool, dry place within the -25°C to 60°C range, away from direct sunlight. They typically come in bulk bags or trays, but we can do individual packaging if you need it for retail or distribution.
