Go to RJ45 pass through connectors?

[Alan Ambrose]

Bit stumped today. I have some temp/humidity sensors with ~1m cable I want to add RJ45s to and also some CAT6 cable ditto.

 

I thought this would take 10 mins as I have some pass throughs around. Not so. Turns out the ones I have (https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B088R5F3D2) accept a core diameter of 0.93 mm-1.04 mm.

 

My sensors have wire diameter of 1.15mm (around a 26awg core), the CAT6 has 1.3mm (around a 23AWG core). Neither fit, grrr. I'm looking at https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B09BVMQPKH which say "core wire diameter 1.35-1.45mm (23AWG)". Probably fine for my CAT6, maybe not for the sensors.

 

Who knew we would be trading 0.1mm / 100 microns?

 

Anyone have quality pass throughs they recommend?
