  • Retractable Carrier Shell Allows Mating With Standard RJ45 Receptacles For The First Time
  • IP65 Environmental Protection When Mated With etherCON TOP Receptacles Or Closed Sealing Cap
  • Diecast Shell With Chuck-Type Strain Relief Delivers Structural Durability In Field Conditions
  • UV-Resistant F2-Certified Materials Maintain Integrity Under Prolonged Outdoor Exposure
  • Corrosion-Resistant Construction Extends Service Life In High-Humidity And Outdoor Deployments
  • Eliminated Lost-Shell Risk Through Integrated Retractable Shell Design

The Neutrik NE8MXR-B-TOP is built for audio and AV professionals who need reliable Ethernet connectivity in demanding outdoor or touring environments where standard RJ45 connectors fail prematurely. Its retractable carrier shell is the defining engineering advancement in the etherCON TOP series, allowing the connector to mate directly with standard RJ45 receptacles — a capability previously unavailable in ruggedized Ethernet connectors — without sacrificing the protection the connector provides when mated with etherCON TOP receptacles or fitted with the SCMX-TOP sealing cap.

Touring engineers, installed AV contractors, and broadcast infrastructure crews will find the NE8MXR-B-TOP suited to any deployment where moisture, UV exposure, dust, and mechanical stress are concerns. The diecast shell and chuck-type strain relief provide the structural durability expected from professional infrastructure cabling, while UV-resistant F2-certified materials and corrosion resistance ensure long-term outdoor field life. This connector ships without an RJ45 plug and is intended for non-preassembled cable termination, giving technicians full control over cable selection and field assembly.

Note that this connector does not intermate with CAT6 receptacles such as the NE8FDY-C6 or NE8FDY-C6-B, and achieves its IP65 rating only when mated with etherCON TOP receptacles or when the SCMX-TOP sealing cap is installed.
