## Description

If you need to connect an RJ-45 cable (a.k.a Ethernet) to a board that doesn't have an Ethernet socket - this adapter will come in very handy!

This is an Ethernet (RJ-45) Terminal Block to Socket Adapter. There is a standard RJ-45 Ethernet socket on one end and a terminal block on the other.

**No soldering required**! Just unscrew the terminal blocks and slide in your stranded or solid-core wire.

Note that these aren't recommended for actual Ethernet traffic, especially long term... but for basic power/data distribution, RJ-45s are great!
