Description

Black Box FMT720 Snagless Cable Boot - RED

Overview

The Black Box FMT720 is a snagless cable boot designed to protect the RJ45 connector on your Ethernet cables. Its primary function is to prevent the connector's clip from snagging on obstructions during cable pulls, which can lead to bent or broken clips. This ensures the integrity of your network connections and simplifies installation in dense cabling environments. The red color aids in visual identification and cable management.

Compatibility

This boot is designed for standard RJ45 connectors used with Cat5e, Cat6, and Cat6a Ethernet cables. It fits over most standard modular plugs, providing strain relief and protection without interfering with the locking tab. It is compatible with cables intended for use with network switches, routers, and IP cameras.

Installation Notes

To install, simply slide the boot onto the Ethernet cable before terminating the connector. Once the RJ45 connector is crimped, slide the boot forward until it covers the connector's clip and a portion of the cable jacket. Ensure the boot is fully seated to provide maximum protection and strain relief. No special tools are required beyond standard cable termination tools.
