Thanks Josh, We've tried that, a bit, more than a bit, pulled to the breaking point, none of that makes a difference. We've tried multiple crimping tools. We can put a non-shielded connector on and it snaps right in. We didn't notice this issue until these last three boxes purchased in late May. That's why I ask if others have seen this. Looking at the connector under a magnifier, I can see a difference between tabs on them and other shielded and non-shielded connectors. The difference is the distance from the front of the connector to the tab's indentation made where it snaps and locks. I haven't gotten the caliper out to measure yet and can't seem to get a good picture with the camera we have here today. I will bring in a camera tomorrow and see if if I can get a picture of them side by side. It happens to NB's we've had in the field for more than a year as well. I have a few connectors from CTI left that don't have that issue. Plug in, snap, just don't like the way the ground attaches to the connector. Thank you, Dave

They just won't snap in and work their way out just enough to cause failure over time. No issues with any other radio's - just NB's. Has anyone else experienced this issue ?

There are two styles. One has no metal shielding, the other does. Both are expensive (relatively) but I'm addicted to them. I love not having to worry about how far back I strip things. Not having to worry about wires crossing when pushed into the connector (I can check them before crimping) etc. http://ezrj45.com/ezrj45plugs.php?gclid=CLSDvLWfxrgCFWXZQgodwlQANg Marsh cable stocks them. marlon From: Kevin Owen <mailto:ko...@fsr.com> Sent: Tuesday, July 23, 2013 11:21 AM To: WISPA General List <mailto:wireless@wispa.org> Subject: Re: [WISPA] shielded rj45 ends Do they support shielded cabling?

Get them from Marsh Cable. It's the style where the wires go right through the ends of the connectors and the crimper crimps and cuts at the same time. HUGE time saver. marlon From: heith <mailto:wi...@mncomm.com> petersen Sent: Tuesday, July 23, 2013 6:50 AM To: wireless@wispa.org Subject: [WISPA] shielded rj45 ends I was curious what shielded ends members are using. I typically use the cable that Cayman wireless sells, definitely not tough cable. I prefer the UBNT tough ends as I have no issues with them, however some of my techs dread them. I have purchased some other ends in the past but at a high premium. Anyways just looking for some ideas as I am getting out voted on the tough ends. thanks heith _____ _______________________________________________ Wireless mailing list Wireless@wispa.org http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless _____ _______________________________________________ Wireless mailing list Wireless@wispa.org http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless _______________________________________________ Wireless mailing list Wireless@wispa.org http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless
