The generic name for the connectors that have holes to feed wires
through looks to be "Pass Through RJ45".<br>
<br>
And the reason I'm selecting these right now is because they allow
for the shield + drain wire to be pushed as deep as possible into
the connector. The ones we used to use (TC-CON by UBNT) have blind
holes, and you'd have to cut the conductors to just the right
length, otherwise you couldn't get the shield in there. So we gave
up on shield contact and crimped drain wire only. But that left
suboptimal mechanical connections between the cable and RJ45.<br>
<br>
If you're buying crimping gear for these, buy the genuine Platinum
Tools crimper (~$100), and to go with it, the Klein Tools VDV110-261
stripper (~$15). 1 turn of that stripper takes off the jacket, but
doesn't cut the shield at all.<br>

no STP = Shielded Twisted Pair. UTP = Unshielded Twisted
