RJ45 Connectors and Boots

Help

Hey guys!

I've been scouring Amazon and eBay in an attempt to find a really sexy RJ45 connector that comes with a matching boot that once installed, the boot cannot be removed. I haven't really been able to find anything that's really nice looking that fits my needs. It would be amazing if there was something that is very similar to the RJ45 and Boots used on monoprice slim runs so you could custom cut a cable that's a little long!

If you have any recommendations for any connectors/boot combo that look really nice that you've had good luck with I would appreciate it! Affordability would be nice as well.

Thanks!

I picked up some of these and have been happy with them, but they are a little bit fiddly:

The boot slides on before you crimp and will not come apart.

Note: they are pass through connectors so you'll need an appropriate crimper with an end cutter for them. I recommend the Klein crimper.

M12 Ethernet connectors?

What do you mean by “cannot be removed”?

I’m really looking for RJ45 connectors not M12.

For instance on the removable part, the boots on the mono price slim run go into the RJ45 connector itself and once the RJ45 Is crimped, the boot/strain relief cannot be removed.
