3M™ Scotchlok Connectors
3M introduced the industry's original insulation displacement connector-the 3M™ Scotchlok™ UR Connector. The increase in demand for high-speed and high-bandwidth networks has created the complete series of 3M connectors & tools.

3M has leveraged new technologies building on the original and successful design, shape, color-coded cap concepts and element configuration. The latest tools and connectors from 3M allow service providers to meet the demands for high speed internet, video-on-demand and video conferencing. Series 2 connectors offer a full wire range capability, an increased port size to accommodate up to 2.08 mm (0.082") insulation sizes, double elements in all products and solvent resistant plastic construction.

The migration of new technologies into the local loop has created an importance for reliable connections for the embedded plant. Each connection is a potential point of failure which requires additional time and expense. This is where the full line of 3M Scotchlok connectors makes a difference.
