Neutrik NE8MX-1 Carrier X Series etherCON CAT5 Connector, Nickel
The Neutrik NE8MX-1 is a robust and reliable EtherCON cable connector carrier designed for professional audio, lighting, and network data applications. Engineered with precision and durability in mind, this male connector provides a rugged solution for assembling custom RJ45 cable systems that require dependable connectivity in demanding environments. Unlike standard RJ45 plugs, the NE8MX-1 is designed to encase and protect the RJ45 connection with its tough shell, offering superior strain relief and shielding in mission-critical setups.
This model is perfect for those who need a heavy-duty, field-terminable solution for custom-length cables in live production, stage setups, or mobile environments. Note that the NE8MX-1 does not come with an RJ45 plug; users must supply their own terminated RJ45 cable to use with this carrier. Its compatibility with cables from 0.14" to 0.31" in diameter ensures flexibility across a range of installations. The durable zinc diecast shell, nickel plating, and polyamide boot offer excellent resistance to environmental stress, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor usage.
Installation is simple and secure, offering a consistent connection even under heavy handling. Thanks to its more than 1000 mating cycles, you can rely on this connector over a long service life. Whether you're a touring professional, studio technician, or installer working on permanent systems, the NE8MX-1 offers the kind of rugged dependability and consistent performance that Neutrik is renowned for across the globe.
