InLine RJ45 Keystone Jack Snap-In Module Cat.6a 10GBase-T 500 MHz with Dust Cover Black

The InLine RJ45 Keystone Jack Snap-In Module Cat.6a 10GBase-T 500 MHz with Dust Cover is a professional network component designed for high-performance structured cabling systems. Engineered to support transmission speeds up to 10GBase-T and frequencies up to 500 MHz, this shielded Ethernet connector ensures stable, secure, and interference-free data communication. It features a durable zinc alloy housing for full shielding and includes a practical integrated dust cover to protect the port from dirt and debris when not in use. Suitable for both office and home network infrastructures, this module provides reliable connectivity for demanding networking environments.

Advantages

This Keystone module offers robust full shielding within a sturdy zinc alloy housing, effectively minimizing electromagnetic interference and signal degradation in busy network installations. The integrated dust cover enhances longevity by safeguarding the internal contacts from dust and environmental particles. With support for Power over Ethernet standards such as PoE and PoE+, it allows simultaneous data transmission and power supply to compatible network devices. The LSA mount facilitates secure and efficient cable termination, while the standardized snap-in design ensures broad compatibility with standard patch panels and wall outlets.

Suitable for

• Building high-speed home and office local area networks
• Installing structured cabling systems using 19-inch empty patch panels
• Connecting network wall boxes designed for standard keystone applications
• Deploying Power over Ethernet devices like IP cameras and access points

When it may not be suitable

This module may not be appropriate for unshielded cabling infrastructures where shielded components are unnecessary or unsupported. It is also unsuitable for cables outside the specified outer diameter range or wire gauge limits, requiring careful verification of cable dimensions prior to installation.

How to use

Preparation begins by stripping the outer jacket of the network cable to expose the individual conductors, ensuring the cable outer diameter falls within the supported range of 5.0 to 8.5 mm and the wire gauge is between 22AWG and 26AWG. Route the individual wires into the LSA terminal block according to the desired wiring standard and press them securely into place using a compatible LSA insertion tool. Once the wiring is complete, snap the fully shielded zinc alloy module directly into a compatible 19-inch empty patch panel or a standard keystone wall box. Ensure the dust cover remains closed when the port is unoccupied to maintain optimal contact cleanliness and performance.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your existing or planned network infrastructure utilizes compatible Cat.6a shielded cabling components
• Check that your network cables match the supported wire gauges from 22AWG to 26AWG and outer diameters from 5.0 to 8.5 mm
• Confirm that your patch panels or wall outlets feature standard keystone snap-in cutouts

Usage recommendations

Always verify correct wire placement against standard color-coding diagrams prior to termination. Avoid excessive bending radii directly behind the module to maintain signal integrity and prevent long-term strain on the connections.
