The fit is quite tight...
I tried to buy it directly from the original manufacturer (LTW) long before this item displayed at NetGate. Finaly I got it from NetGate.
Tried to plug it to the RJ-45 plug .. and found that it's to thight.
It's hard to plug and un-plug it. Actualy this action broke 2 of Plug's Pin.
Tried to use my stock AMP RJ-45 jack .. hopefuly it'll more easy to plug-unPlug it. Same as the 1st trial ... it hard to plug-unplug.
Conclusion : The Female Waterproof RJ-45 Jack is not come in standard dimension.
Netgate response: This is the same OEM part used by the manufacturer for all of the WRAP BOXes. It is sized correctly and maintains the NEMA seal - so the fit is quite tight. You need to ensure the pins are not bent during the installation process before you try plugging in any standard RJ-45 jack.
