RJ45 connectors...?

[Rilian]

Does anyone know where i can find the RJ45 connectors that come on the XBOX360 patch cable, they have a nice metal shield on the sides of the RJ45 connectors... Im making my own wire but in my opinion these style rj45s are the most durable anyone have any clue where i can get some?

cables are so cheap, make what you require twice and keep a spare.

i think the connectors you are after are 'Shielded'.

yup, ppe is right, shielded boots are what you're looking for, however, any standard patch cable will work, besides the xbox and the router have to accomodate the shielded apsect of it (the shielding is for grounding purposes) in order to get any benefit over it.

edit: the boots are usually more expensive too, i'll get a pirce comparison here shortly.
