What makes the Simply45™ Pass Through RJ45 Termination System stand out?
According to the website for the USA designed and TAA compliant pass through system:
“We re-engineered the pass through RJ45 modular plug to be simply better quality, simply easier to use and simply more affordable.”
In fact, Simply45 was featured as one of the Best of Show winners at InfoComm International 2019 by AV technology, and chosen from literally thousands of other products, representing it’s exceptional achievement in product design and development.
And there’s good reason why…
In this post, we’ll look at the key features that make the Simply 45 pass through RJ45 termination system stand out and some of the key products the line offers:
Key Features

Simply 45 RJ45 Modular Plugs
Simply45 modular plugs are uniquely designed to be better quality, easier to use and “simply more affordable.”
The RJ45 plugs are UL94 V0 rated and are designed to allow the wire conductors to pass through the front of the connector completely, so you can easily view and verify the wire order prior to crimping.
The contact plating for each plug is min 50 micro-inch pure gold (24 carat hard gold plate) and exceeds ANSI/TIA-1096-A specifications.
