Soft Plastic Ethernet RJ45 Cable Connector Boots Cover Strain Relief Boots CAT5 CAT5E CAT6 CAT6E 100PCS (Blue)

These RJ45 Ethernet cable connectors did the trick perfectly. They were easy to use, fit snugly, and worked exactly as expected. The finished cables look professional and neat, and the connectors themselves feel solid and well-made. Great product if you’re making or repairing your own Ethernet cables.

Great quality, matched the Amazon cables.

As an IT consultant handling everything from data recovery to network setups, I go through a lot of RJ45 connectors, and these soft plastic strain relief boots are a solid addition to my toolkit. The fit is snug across CAT5, CAT5E, CAT6, and CAT6E cables, and they slide on easily without splitting or tearing. They do exactly what they’re supposed to: protect the clip from snapping, reduce cable strain, and give a cleaner, more professional finish to patch cables. The material is flexible but durable, and the color variety helps with quick identification during installs or troubleshooting. For a 100-pack, the value is excellent. Whether you're doing a full office setup or just want to keep your home network tidy and protected, this is a smart buy. I’ll be keeping these stocked for future jobs.

This is a review of four related products purchased here on Amazon. 1. Klein Tools VDV826-703 Pass-Thru™ Modular Data Plug, CAT6, 50-Pack (ASIN B076PRM7W8) 2. Klein Tools VDV226-005 Compact Pass-Thru™ Modular Crimper (ASIN B07R3GK9FQ) 3. Soft Plastic Ethernet RJ45 Cable Connector Boots by Copapa (ASIN B07219KGC4) 4. H!Fiber 1Gbe Ethernet Network Adapter (ASIN B074PPRQQK) I’m using CAT 6 UTP (23 AWG) that I bought from a local home center. 1. I found the Klein Tools VDV826-703 Pass-Thru™ Modular Data Plug, (CAT6, 50-Pack) to be easy to use. This is my first-time using pass-thru connectors, and I have mixed feelings, but that’s not what this is about. The 23 AWG wires fit in snuggly but did require a bit of convincing to pass thru. They are more expensive than some others that are available, but I know these will work perfectly, especially with a same brand crimper. 2. The Klein Tools VDV226-005 Compact Pass-Thru™ Modular Crimper did its job flawlessly. The insulation is held tightly in place, the crimp felt secure, and the pass-thru wires were cut perfectly flush. I still need to try this with cheap plugs, to see if they are cut just as flush, but these work great with their own. 3. While I don’t usually use boots, I decided to give them a shot as they make the wires look more “finished”. I purchased the blue Soft Plastic Ethernet RJ45 Cable Connector Boots by Copapa. While they didn’t cost much, they were very soft and fit okay. I wish they were a little tighter around the wire, but that can vary from brand to brand. Overall, I’m happy with them. 4. Once the cables were completed, I plugged them into a H!Fiber NIC (Intel I350-T4 chipset). They all fit nicely together, even with the boots. That network card is not the V2, and that was expected. The V2s are harder to find and there are no performance differences. The revision was made to fix a slight power surge during power-on. The network card performed flawlessly with pfSense and I was able to configure two LAGGs with LACP support. One to a Cisco managed switch, and the other to my cable modem (SB8200) but I’ll save those for a different review. This card is working perfectly.

Works well and matches color of the blue fast Cat Cat 6 Ethernet Cable. Flexible and looks seamless with my Ethernet cable.

I recabled the entire house. That meant recreating every cable I used. These strain relief boots did just what I thought they would. No tight turns and no broken cables.

These were very easy to work with. They have a large enough opening that I could even use them with my thick direct-burial Cat6a cable, although just barely. On the flip side, they were pretty loose on some of my older fairly thin Cat5 cables. They fit very nicely onto all of the various Ethernet connector ends that my cables used.

Good boot for cables. Good to identify individual cables.

ممتاز

Ça bouchons très souples et à la fois très serrés autour du câble. Parfait.

buon materiale

Ideales para dejar los cables de red con un acabado profesional y de paso, fortalecer la conexión ya que muchas veces, por enchufar y desenchufar, el cable va cediendo, lo que se traduce a malas conexiones o velocidades muy bajas. Antes de poner el conector RJ45, se mete el cable por el agujero, se crimpa y se sube "la bota" hasta que quede como si fuese un cable de fábrica. A mí me ha funcionado perfectamente. Los recomiendo. Saludos.

Great value for money. They fit well around my connectors. Good bright green colour, useful for making up different cables.
