UGREEN NW120 Cat 6 Unshielded RJ45 Connector is available at Mascom International for KSh 1,400 per 100 pack, brand new and sealed, and in stock today. That works out to KSh 14 per plug. Each UGREEN NW120 Cat 6 Unshielded RJ45 Connector is an 8P8C plug, meaning eight positions and eight contacts, sized for Cat 6 U-UTP cable, the plain unshielded twisted-pair cable used in most Kenyan offices and homes. The clear shell of the UGREEN NW120 Cat 6 Unshielded RJ45 Connector lets you check every wire before you crimp. Pick up a pack at Mascom International, Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, or order it for delivery.
Built for network installers, IT support staff, CCTV technicians and office administrators across Kenya, the UGREEN NW120 Cat 6 Unshielded RJ45 Connector turns a reel of bulk cable into finished patch leads and wall runs. The common problem is simple. A cheap plug cracks at the latch, a pin sits short, and the link drops to slow speeds or fails outright. Starting with a matched Cat 6 plug removes one weak point, so a fibre router in Kilimani or a switch rack in Upper Hill stays connected at full Gigabit speed after the job is signed off.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops sell loose plugs by the handful with no brand or rating, Mascom International stocks the UGREEN NW120 Cat 6 Unshielded RJ45 Connector in sealed, counted packs of 100. Customers across Nairobi tell us the clear housing saves time on site, because a crossed pair is easy to spot before the crimp. Installers wiring offices in Westlands and estates in Nakuru keep a pack in their bag beside the UGREEN NW304 Multifunction Crimping Tool. Walk into our Kimathi Street store, or order on WhatsApp for pay-on-arrival delivery anywhere in Kenya.
Common Questions About the UGREEN NW120 Cat 6 Unshielded RJ45 Connector
How much is the UGREEN NW120 Cat 6 Unshielded RJ45 Connector 100 Pack in Kenya?
The UGREEN NW120 Cat 6 Unshielded RJ45 Connector 100 Pack costs KSh 1,400, brand new and sealed, at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. That is KSh 14 per plug, or KSh 28 for both ends of one cable. The price includes a 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects and pay-on-arrival delivery to all 47 counties. The shielded UGREEN NW111 Cat 6 Shielded RJ45 Connector costs KSh 1,600 per 100 pack, so the unshielded pack saves you KSh 200 when your cable has no foil layer.
Should I buy the UGREEN NW120 Cat 6 Unshielded RJ45 Connector or the shielded UGREEN NW111?
Buy the UGREEN NW120 Cat 6 Unshielded RJ45 Connector for ordinary U-UTP cable, which is what most Kenyan homes and offices run. The UGREEN NW111 Cat 6 Shielded RJ45 Connector has a metal shell meant for F-UTP cable, the foil-wrapped type used near heavy electrical noise. A shielded plug on unshielded cable adds cost and no benefit. Pick the NW120 at KSh 1,400 for standard office, home and CCTV runs. Pick the NW111 at KSh 1,600 for factories, generator rooms and cable laid beside power lines.
Will the UGREEN NW120 Cat 6 Unshielded RJ45 Connector work with Safaricom, Airtel and Zuku home internet routers?
Yes, the UGREEN NW120 Cat 6 Unshielded RJ45 Connector fits the standard RJ45 LAN ports on every fibre router supplied by Safaricom, Airtel Kenya, Zuku and Telkom. Use it to run a cable from the router to a desk, smart TV, PS5 or a second Wi-Fi access point. A wired link avoids the Wi-Fi drop-offs common through thick stone walls in Nairobi flats. Keep finished cable ends away from direct sun and standing water, since dust and rain on an open plug can corrode the contacts over time.
Who should buy the UGREEN NW120 Cat 6 Unshielded RJ45 Connector and who should skip it?
The UGREEN NW120 Cat 6 Unshielded RJ45 Connector suits installers, IT staff and confident DIY buyers who own a crimping tool and work with bulk Cat 6 U-UTP cable. Skip it if you only need one or two cables and have never crimped before. A ready-made lead such as the UGREEN NW102 Cat 6 Flat LAN Cable, from KSh 1,000 for 10 metres, is simpler. Skip it too for foil-shielded cable, where the UGREEN NW111 Cat 6 Shielded RJ45 Connector is the right match.
What tools do I need to fit the UGREEN NW120 Cat 6 Unshielded RJ45 Connector?
You need an RJ45 crimping tool, a cable stripper and, ideally, a simple LAN tester. The UGREEN NW304 Multifunction Crimping Tool sells at Mascom International for KSh 1,800 and handles stripping, cutting and crimping in one hand tool. Strip the outer jacket, untwist the pairs, line the wires up in order, trim them flat and push them fully into the UGREEN NW120 Cat 6 Unshielded RJ45 Connector. Check through the clear shell that each wire reaches the front before you squeeze the crimp.
Which wiring order should I use with the UGREEN NW120 Cat 6 Unshielded RJ45 Connector?
Most installers in Kenya wire the UGREEN NW120 Cat 6 Unshielded RJ45 Connector to T568B at both ends, which gives a straight-through cable for routers, switches and computers. T568B runs orange-white, orange, green-white, blue, blue-white, green, brown-white, brown, reading left to right with the latch facing down. T568A swaps the orange and green pairs. Both work equally well. What matters is using the same standard at both ends and across every point in the building, so the next technician knows exactly what to expect.
Can the UGREEN NW120 Cat 6 Unshielded RJ45 Connector carry PoE for CCTV cameras?
Yes, the UGREEN NW120 Cat 6 Unshielded RJ45 Connector carries Power over Ethernet, because PoE travels on the same eight wires as the data. That suits IP cameras, Wi-Fi access points and IP desk phones powered from a PoE switch. A firm, complete crimp matters more with PoE, since a loose pin can heat up under load. CCTV installers protecting shops in Eldoret and warehouses in Industrial Area use a backup battery on the PoE switch so cameras keep recording through KPLC power cuts.
How many network cables can I finish with one UGREEN NW120 Cat 6 Unshielded RJ45 Connector 100 pack?
One UGREEN NW120 Cat 6 Unshielded RJ45 Connector 100 pack finishes up to 50 complete cables with a plug at each end. In practice, keep a few plugs back for practice crimps and the odd wrong wire order, so plan on slightly fewer than 50 finished cables. For a small office with 20 desks, one pack covers every desk lead plus the patch leads at the switch. Larger jobs in schools, hospitals and campuses such as Kenyatta University or JKUAT usually call for two or more packs.
Technical Specifications
Core Function and Connector Design
- Cat 6 rated RJ45 plug — made for Cat 6 cable, the common standard for Gigabit office and home networks.
- 8P8C layout, meaning eight positions and eight contacts — every one of the four twisted pairs gets its own pin.
- Unshielded U-UTP design — no metal shell, matched to the plain unshielded cable most Kenyan buildings use.
- Supports Gigabit Ethernet on a correctly terminated Cat 6 run — enough for 4K streaming, video calls and large file transfers.
- Carries Power over Ethernet on the same wires — powers IP cameras, access points and desk phones from one cable.
- Part number 60558 printed on genuine packs — useful when matching a stock order or checking a supplier invoice.
Compatibility With Cables and Devices
- Fits standard Cat 6 U-UTP bulk cable — the grey, blue or white reels sold to installers across Kenya.
- Plugs into any RJ45 port — routers, switches, laptops, desktops, smart TVs, consoles, printers and IP phones all accept it.
- Works with Safaricom, Airtel Kenya, Zuku and Telkom fibre routers — connect desks and TVs straight to the LAN port.
- Supports both T568A and T568B wiring orders — wire both ends the same way for a straight-through cable.
- Matches standard RJ45 crimping dies — the UGREEN NW304 Multifunction Crimping Tool and other common crimpers fit it.
- Pairs with RJ45 couplers and splitters — the UGREEN NW261 RJ45 Ethernet Extender Adapter joins two finished cables.
Build and Materials
- Transparent plastic housing — you see the full wire order through the shell before crimping, which cuts down on errors.
- Spring latch on the top — clicks firmly into the port and holds the cable in place on a busy desk.
- Metal contact blades — pierce each wire insulation during crimping to form a solid electrical connection.
- Cable strain point at the rear — the crimp grips the outer jacket, so a tug on the cable does not pull wires loose.
- Compact plug body — fits closely spaced switch ports and wall faceplates without blocking the port beside it.
- Sealed factory packaging — the plugs stay clean and dust-free until you open them on site.
Inclusions and Value
- 100 connectors in one sealed pack — enough for up to 50 complete cables with a plug at each end.
- KSh 1,400 per pack — about KSh 14 per plug, or KSh 28 for the two ends of one cable.
- KSh 200 below the UGREEN NW111 Cat 6 Shielded RJ45 Connector 100 pack — savings that count on large unshielded jobs.
- Brand new and sealed stock — no loose or mixed plugs from an unknown source.
- Backed by a 6-month Mascom International warranty — faulty plugs from a sealed pack are covered for manufacturing defects.
- Spare plugs store well in a dry toolbox — keep the opened pack sealed against dust and coastal humidity between jobs.
Practical Installation Notes
- Strip only a short length of jacket — enough to sort the pairs without leaving loose wire outside the plug.
- Trim wires flat before insertion — uneven ends stop short of the contacts and cause dead or slow links.
- Push the jacket inside the plug rear — the crimp then grips the jacket, which protects the thin wires from tugging.
- Test every finished cable on a LAN tester — it confirms all eight wires connect in the right order before handover.
- Label both ends of long runs — saves time later when an office in Upper Hill moves desks or adds a printer.
