• Color: White
• Mounting type: Wall-mounted

How to use

Installation should be performed by a qualified professional or an individual with basic electrical knowledge. Begin by ensuring the power is disconnected if working near electrical circuits. Strip the Cat 5e UTP cable according to the T568A or T568B wiring standard, insert the individual wires into the designated color-coded terminals on the back of the socket, and secure them using the integrated punch-down mechanism. Once wired, mount the socket into a standard wall box and attach the faceplate to complete the installation.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your existing cabling infrastructure matches the Cat 5e UTP standard.
• Ensure you have a compatible wall box installed for mounting.
• Check if your network requirements necessitate shielded (STP) cables instead of unshielded (UTP).

Usage recommendations

For optimal network performance, ensure that the cable twists are maintained as close to the termination point as possible and avoid sharp bends or excessive tension on the cables during installation.
