Ensure that the Ethernet cable is properly terminated with an RJ45 connector or wired according to the T568A or T568B standards before connecting it to the rear of the module. Once the wiring is secured, the socket can be mounted into the wall frame. Always ensure the power is disconnected if working near electrical circuits during the installation process.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your existing wall boxes are compatible with the 67 mm x 67 mm dimensions.
• Ensure your network infrastructure supports Category 5e cabling.
• Check if the silver finish matches your existing electrical switch and socket collection.

Usage recommendations: For optimal network performance, avoid sharp bends in the Ethernet cable behind the wall and ensure that the cable shielding is handled according to your specific network requirements to prevent signal interference.
