Wall mount outlet Extralink 1x RJ45 KAT5E UTP, white, female, ABS

Extralink wall mount outlet with a single RJ45 KAT5E UTP female connector provides a compact, surface-mounted termination point for Cat5e unshielded twisted-pair Ethernet cabling. The white ABS housing is designed for installation on walls in offices, homes or server rooms, offering a neat and durable connection point that complies with Cat5e (Class D) wiring standards. The socket accepts standard RJ45 plugs and includes color-coded wiring to support either 568A or 568B termination schemes.

Advantages

The outlet is manufactured from impact-resistant ABS to ensure long-term mechanical stability and a clean aesthetic. Its slotted joint and clear color coding simplify cable termination and reduce installation errors. As a single-port surface mount module, it enables flexible placement without the need for recessed boxes and is suitable for quick deployment when extending or organizing network points.

How to use

Prepare the Cat5e UTP cable by stripping the outer sheath and untwisting pairs according to the selected 568A or 568B wiring scheme. Insert each conductor into the slotted connector on the outlet following the color coding printed on the module, then secure the cable by closing the joint or tightening the strain relief if present. Mount the outlet to the wall at the chosen location using appropriate screws or adhesives for the surface type. After installation, test the link with a network cable tester to verify continuity and correct pair assignment.

Usage recommendations

To maintain reliable network performance, use Cat5e-rated patch cables and avoid routing cables alongside high-voltage power lines. For installations requiring higher performance or future-proofing, consider Cat6 outlets and cabling. Periodically inspect the outlet and connections for physical damage and re-test if network issues appear.
