## Long description

Surface-mounted shielded patch box ACT 8-port CAT6, 173×44 mm is a compact, metal-enclosed housing designed to accommodate up to eight CAT6 keystone modules or RJ45 terminations. The unit provides a covered, grounded enclosure for Ethernet terminations where surface installation is required, helping to organize and protect network connections in small offices, apartments and communication cupboards. The dimensions of 173 × 44 mm allow installation in tight spaces while keeping patching points accessible.
Advantages
The shielded metal housing reduces electromagnetic interference and supports proper grounding of CAT6 terminations. A compact footprint simplifies placement on walls or other surfaces without requiring recessed installation. The box is compatible with standard CAT6 keystone modules and RJ45 jacks, enabling straightforward termination and rearrangement of ports. Designed for practical installation, it keeps cabling tidy and improves physical protection of connectors.
Suitable for
Small office network terminations and point-of-entry wiring
Apartment or residential structured cabling where surface mounting is needed
Network closets and comms cabinets with limited space
Temporary or permanent installations requiring metal shielding and grounding
Key specifications

Shielded metal enclosure to reduce electromagnetic interference
External dimensions: 173 × 44 mm (width × height)
Surface-mounted design for wall or flat-surface installation

How to use
Mount the patch box on a suitable flat surface using appropriate screws and anchors for the substrate. Install CAT6 keystone modules or RJ45 jacks into the front openings, then terminate individual Ethernet cables to the modules following standard CAT6 wiring schemes (T568A or T568B). Ensure the metal housing is connected to protective earth/ground where required to maintain shielding effectiveness. After termination, close the cover and secure any cable entry points to prevent strain on the jacks.
Usage recommendations
Use certified CAT6 keystone modules and follow recommended CAT6 termination practices to preserve performance. Verify grounding continuity between the shielded box and the building earthing system. For longer runs or critical links, perform cable certification tests to confirm compliance with CAT6 performance limits.
