Conector RJ45 STP

The RJ45 STP (Shielded Twisted Pair) connector is a type of connector frequently used in computer networks to ensure a secure and efficient connection of network equipment, such as computers, routers, and switches. It is designed to work with shielded twisted pair copper cables, providing additional protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, compared to the usual RJ45 connectors for UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) cables.

The RJ45 STP connector is characterized by the presence of a metal foil or braid surrounding the wire pairs, acting as a shield to prevent external interference. This makes it ideal for use in environments with many electronic devices or in places with large sources of electromagnetic interference, such as factories or industrial buildings.

RJ45 STP connectors are as easy to install as UTP ones but offer superior performance in terms of signal reliability, being a preferred choice for critical applications where network integrity is essential. They are compatible with Ethernet cabling standards and are used in networks that require high transfer speeds, such as Gigabit Ethernet or 10 Gigabit Ethernet.
