RJ45 Pivot Power Plug — 8p2c Plus Two Power Contacts
It terminates via IDC onto flat oval cable with stranded wires — the same IDC tooling used for standard RJ45 plugs works here, but the cable profile is specific: flat oval, not round. The gold-plated copper alloy contacts handle the signal and power lanes; the polycarbonate housing keeps the assembly light and rated for indoor equipment environments.
Termination and Cable Fit — Flat Oval Only
This plug is designed for flat oval cable with stranded conductors — not round cable, not solid wire. If your harness uses round Cat5e or round stranded cable, the 2178148-1 CLOUDSPLITTER plug is the round-cable counterpart, though it carries a Cat5e rating this part does not. On-site, the same hand-press tool that seats standard RJ45 IDC plugs will terminate this one, so no special tooling is needed — just confirm the cable is flat oval before you start.
Length and Physical Fit
The overall length is 1.122" (28.50mm) from the plug face to the back of the body. That dimension matters when the plug sits inside a recessed panel-mount jack or a tight enclosure — measure the cavity depth before committing the BOM line.
