Network outlet IT-BUDGET 2×RJ45 Cat.6A unshielded surface-mount horizontal cable entry PoE+ capable

The IT-BUDGET Network outlet 2×RJ45 Cat.6A unshielded surface-mount with horizontal cable entry is a compact wall-mounted module designed for visible installation in offices, apartments and commercial spaces. Finished in pure white, it houses two RJ45 sockets that support unshielded Cat.6A connections and Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) delivery. The outlet provides a tidy, accessible termination point for horizontal structured cabling and is intended to transmit data at Cat.6A performance without requiring shielded cabling.

Advantages

This surface-mount outlet offers two independently wired RJ45 ports in a single, slim housing that simplifies installation where in-wall mounting is not possible or desired. Compatibility with Cat.6A unshielded twisted pair cabling allows higher bandwidth and improved crosstalk performance compared with lower categories, while PoE+ capability supports powered devices such as IP phones, wireless access points and security cameras. The pure white finish integrates unobtrusively into most interiors and the horizontal cable entry reduces visible cable routing along baseboards or walls.

Suitable for

• Office desks and workstations where surface mounting is required
• Residential installations in apartments and homes without in-wall cable runs
• Small commercial spaces, retail or meeting rooms needing two network outlets
• Powering PoE+ devices such as IP phones, access points and some cameras

When it may not be suitable

This outlet is designed for unshielded Cat.6A cabling and is not intended to replace shielded (STP/FTP) installations where electromagnetic interference mitigation is required. It is a surface-mount product and therefore not suitable where recessed or flush-mounted outlets are mandated for aesthetic or building-code reasons. For environments that require outdoor-rated, waterproof or vandal-resistant enclosures, a purpose-built outlet should be selected instead.

Key specifications

• Connector type: 2 × RJ45 sockets
• Cabling category: Cat.6A (unshielded)
• Cable entry: Horizontal surface-mount
• Power delivery: PoE+ capable (per relevant PoE standards when supplied by compatible switch or injector)
• Finish/color: Pure white
• Installation: Surface-mounted housing for visible wall or baseboard installation

How to use

Mount the outlet on a clean, flat surface using appropriate screws or adhesive recommended for the wall material. Route the horizontal unshielded Cat.6A cable into the housing and terminate each conductor pair to the corresponding 8P8C termination points following the T568A or T568B wiring scheme as required by your network. Secure the cable and close the housing. Connect patch cables from the RJ45 sockets to end devices or patch panel/switch ports. Ensure PoE power sourcing equipment and downstream devices are compatible with PoE+ power levels before applying power.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm you are using unshielded Cat.6A cabling and that shielded cabling is not required for your environment
• Verify horizontal surface-mount routing is acceptable for installation location and aesthetics
• Check that your switch or injector supports PoE+ if you plan to power devices through the outlet
• Ensure mounting surface and available space accommodate the housing dimensions and cable bend radius

Usage recommendations

Use quality Cat.6A unshielded patch cords and maintain proper pair untwisting limits when terminating to preserve performance. Test each link after installation with an appropriate network tester to verify continuity, pair allocation and Cat.6A performance characteristics. If electromagnetic interference is present in the installation area, consider migrating to shielded solutions or relocating cabling paths to reduce crosstalk and noise.
