When it may not be suitable

This outlet is specified for Cat.5e UTP cabling and does not provide shielding or support for higher-category performance such as Cat.6 or Cat.6a. It may not be appropriate for installations that require shielded cabling, higher data rates, or future-proofing to higher category standards. Professional assessment is recommended when planning network deployments that demand gigabit-plus performance or specific shielding requirements.

Key specifications

• Connector type: RJ45, single port
• Cabling compatibility: Cat.5e, unshielded twisted pair (UTP)
• Mounting: keystone module for standard wall boxes and compatible VALENA ALLURE frames
• Application: Ethernet network outlet for data transmission
• Physical format: single-gang module designed for decorative plate integration

How to use

Prepare the Cat.5e UTP cable by stripping the outer sheath and arranging the conductor pairs according to the chosen wiring standard (T568A or T568B). Terminate the conductors into the module's IDC or punch-down contacts following the module's wiring diagram, ensuring secure and correct pair alignment. Insert the keystone module into the VALENA ALLURE frame or directly into the wall box as appropriate, secure the frame to the box, and attach the decorative plate. Test the connection with a network tester or connected device to verify continuity and signal quality before putting the outlet into regular use.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm your cabling category (Cat.5e) and whether UTP (unshielded) is appropriate for your environment
• Check compatibility with your existing VALENA ALLURE frames and wall boxes
• Decide on wiring standard (T568A or T568B) and ensure installers follow the same standard across the network
• Consider future network speed requirements; select higher-category outlets if planning upgrades to Cat.6 or above

Usage recommendations

Use this Legrand VALENA ALLURE single RJ45 Cat.5e UTP outlet for standard Ethernet needs in residential and light commercial settings. Ensure proper cable termination, maintain consistent wiring standards throughout the installation, and test each outlet after termination to confirm reliable network performance.
