When it comes to connecting your PC to the Internet, you will need to connect your PC using LAN cables. Usually, the standard connection is using RJ45 connector, but sometimes a bad connector could impact on your network speed. That is why there is a gold-plated connector that provides better specification with corrosion resistance and consistent connection. Although it will not make your internet faster, but it will make your internet speed consistent.
Onten Indonesia provides variant of gold-plated thickness. From 3um micron to the thickest with 50um micron. Each thickness provides increasing corrosion resistance protection for your RJ45 connector. We also provide shielded connector for CAT5 &
CAT6 connection.
When Does Gold Plating Actually Matter?
While a standard connector works fine for a normal living room setup, gold-plated RJ45 connectors are highly recommended (and often standard) in these scenarios:
- High Humidity or Coastal Areas: If there is a lot of moisture or salt in the air, standard copper contacts will corrode much faster.
- Frequent Plugging and Unplugging: Gold is a relatively soft metal that creates a very flush, tight surface contact. Standard heavy-duty connectors usually have "50-micron" gold plating, which can withstand hundreds of insertion cycles without wearing down.
- Data Centers and Enterprise Networks: In professional environments where a single dropped packet or loose connection can cause massive headaches, the guaranteed longevity of gold plating is mandatory.
