Plug for shielded data cables

An RJ45 plug for shielded data cables with an electrically conducting housing, comprising:

• a first shell (1) and a second shell (2), with an electrically insulating plug body (4), which accommodates plug contacts (302), with a printed circuit board (3), which can be inserted into the housing (1, 2) and which carries the plug contacts (302) and insulation displacement contacts (303, 304) and conductively connects them to one another, and with a loading piece (5) into which the wires of the data cable can be inserted and which can be mounted on the printed circuit board (3) to establish contact between the wires and the insulation displacement contacts (303, 304), characterized in that the printed circuit board (3) can be inserted into the first shell (1) and is electrically insulated against a base (101) of the first shell thereof by a foil (301), that the insulation displacement contacts (303, 304) are arranged in two rows that are mutually offset in the insertion direction of the plug, that the rear row of insulation displacement contacts (303) has a lower height than the front row of insulation displacement contacts (304), that the loading piece (5) accommodates the wires in two planes with the ends of the wires offset in a staggered manner, and that the wires of the plane that projects further out make contact with the insulation displacement contacts (304) of the front row.
