Broken RJ45 Connector Solution (10 pcs: Assorted Colours of Black/Silver/Blue/Yellow/Clear)

I purchased the RJCLIP Broken RJ45 Connector Solution (10 pcs: Assorted Colours) to fix a network cable end with a broken retaining clip. I have a 75’ network cable that runs from my router in the living room all the way through plastic wall cord covers, around the fireplace, under the carpet and back through more wall cord covers. I wanted a solution (short of replacing the RJ-45 connector end) that would keep me from having to replace the entire cable. Once I trimmed off some of the rubber housing from the old cable end the RJCLIP snapped right on the cable connector. I then pushed the cable end into my router and heard a happy “click” to know it locked the cable end snugly into place. A quick pull on the cable confirmed the cable was not going to pull out. I would highly recommend RJCLIP as a quick and easy way to repair network cable ends.

Works as advertised. Saved me from installing new cables.

Quickly fixed the network cable and avoided the need to cut and re-terminate it to ensure it stays plugged in. Would recommend.

I have to admit, I received these and quickly popped them on and got frustrated at first since they at first did not work. I was close to writing a review saying it did not work at all --- but just be patient and read the doc, and it worked great/ You pop it on near the back of the connector and I was missing the part that you have to tuck in the tab on this part under the stub of where the old clip works, and it worked good. Also I looked at the video on rjclip site. Worth the money.

It works okay, but isn't worth $1.25 each. Actually takes some work to get it to stay in place. The catch is on the flimsy side.

These things are a great solution to broken retention clips on ethernet cables. They even work on snagless cables if you shave off some of the rubber on the end (there are videos out there that show how to do this, watch before attempting). The clips are sturdy and snap into place nicely. Broken cables are restored to a usable condition. In my case I had a 100 foot cable running through a large part of my house with a broken clip on one end that would not have been easy to remove and replace. This fixed the issue. The problem is that they are extremely overpriced. They need to either give you more clips for the money, or charge a lot less. I would give them five stars if they were cheaper or they gave you like 20 or 30 clips for this price. The product itself is fantastic.

Works as described. Saved me the time and expense of replacing a partially inaccessible 10-meter cat5 cable, and spared all that copper from needing to be recycled for quite a while longer.Probably most useful for cables that will be in place more or less permanently, since the clips might come off with handling of the cable (more easily with some cables than with others).Helpful videos at manufacturer's site are recommended on the packaging for slightly tricky situations (e.g., cables with non-removable anti-snag hoods, like mine -- the solution is to use a knife just as you might suppose).I'm glad I opted for the larger package (of 10) so I'll have a supply on hand that should last a long time since most of my cabling has anti-snag protection or gets an anti-snag hood put on when deployed. (The anti-snag usually even works!--though not on this cable).

Difficult to use, didn't end up fitting on my cable. I ended up just buying a new ethernet cable.
