What is in the pack
The pack has 10 latches.
How to use it
Cut off what is left of the old latch flush with the plug body. Slide the clip on from above, from the latch side, onto the back of the plug, so that the two posts are behind the back edge and the cable runs between them. Push the plug into the socket. To pull it out, press the arm of the clip towards the plug.
Who it is for
For technicians who deal with patch cables at work and do not want to cut and crimp a new end for one broken latch. Ten pieces are enough for a bigger office patching job and some are left for the drawer.
Good to know
The repair is quicker than a new cable end and you do not need crimping pliers. The clip does not change the wiring, so the cable works as before. Dimensions are per design for a common bare plug, so try one piece the first time.

Common questions
Is the RJ45 clip made for every RJ45 plug?
It is made for a bare plug without a boot, with a body of 11.68 x 6.60 mm. Plugs with a moulded boot and some telephone plugs have a different shape.
Can you pull a plug with the clip out of the socket?
Yes. You press the arm of the clip towards the plug and the plug comes free.
Can you use the clip to mark cables?
Its main job is repair. For marking cables we have separate label tags.
