Delock Keystone Module RJ45 Female to RJ45 Female Cat.6 Shielded Metal

The Delock Keystone module is a high-quality coupler designed to facilitate seamless network connections. Featuring an RJ45 female to RJ45 female interface, this module is specifically engineered for Cat.6 network applications, ensuring reliable data transmission speeds. The robust, shielded metal housing provides superior protection against electromagnetic interference, making it an essential component for professional structured cabling environments.

Advantages

This Keystone module offers exceptional durability due to its metal construction, which not only ensures a long service life but also maintains signal integrity by shielding against external noise. Its standardized Keystone dimensions allow for quick and tool-free installation into patch panels, wall outlets, or keystone mounting frames. The female-to-female configuration simplifies cable management by allowing direct connection of two patch cables without the need for additional termination tools.

Suitable for

• Integration into patch panels for server racks
• Installation in wall outlets for home or office networking
• Extending existing Ethernet cables
• Structured cabling projects requiring Cat.6 performance

When it may not be suitable

This module is not intended for outdoor use where it would be exposed to moisture or extreme weather conditions, as it lacks an IP-rated enclosure. It is also not suitable for applications requiring higher categories like Cat.6A or Cat.8, where specific bandwidth requirements exceed the capabilities of this Cat.6 component.

Key specifications

• Connector type: RJ45 female to RJ45 female
• Category: Cat.6
• Shielding: Fully shielded metal housing
• Standard: Keystone module format
• Compatibility: Standard RJ45 patch cables

How to use

To use the Delock Keystone module, simply snap the unit into a compatible Keystone port on your patch panel or wall outlet until it clicks securely into place. Once mounted, insert your RJ45 patch cables into both sides of the coupler. Ensure that the cables are fully seated to maintain a stable connection. No specialized crimping or punch-down tools are required for this installation.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your patch panel or wall outlet supports the standard Keystone format
• Ensure your existing network cabling is compatible with Cat.6 standards
• Confirm the space requirements behind the wall outlet or panel for the connected cables

Usage recommendations

For optimal network performance, ensure that the patch cables used with this coupler are also Cat.6 shielded to maintain the integrity of the signal path throughout the entire installation.
