How to use

The socket is designed for flush-mounted installation within standard electrical wall boxes. Ensure that the incoming data and telephone cables are properly stripped and terminated according to the T568B or T568A wiring standards before connecting them to the internal terminals of the socket. Once the wires are securely fastened, the unit can be mounted into the wall box and finished with the appropriate frame from the Simon 54 series.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your existing wall boxes are compatible with the 75 mm x 75 mm dimensions.
• Ensure the cabling infrastructure in your building supports Cat.5e performance.
• Check if you require additional frames or covers from the Simon 54 series to complete the installation.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, ensure that the twisted pair cables are not bent beyond their minimum bend radius during installation and keep data cables away from high-voltage electrical lines to prevent electromagnetic interference.
