LAN socket MACLEAN MCE725B — unshielded network wall outlet (RJ45)

MACLEAN MCE725B LAN socket is a wall-mounted RJ45 network outlet designed for unshielded Ethernet terminations. It provides a fixed, low-profile connection point for structured cabling in homes, offices and commercial interiors, allowing network devices to connect via standard Cat5e/Cat6 twisted-pair cables. The outlet is intended for tidy cable routing and reliable wired access to routers, switches, computers and other networked equipment.

Advantages

The unshielded design simplifies installation where shielded cabling is not required and helps reduce cost compared with shielded alternatives. The compact form factor fits common wall-box dimensions and offers a clean finish for professional-looking network outlets. The RJ45 connector provides compatibility with a wide range of Ethernet devices, and the fixed wall-mounted configuration secures the termination point for repeatable plug cycles and reduced cable strain.

Suitable for

• Residential wired LAN installations for home networking and smart home devices
• Office workstations and small business network ports
• Commercial interiors where unshielded cabling is used for Ethernet connections
• Connecting desktop computers, IP phones, printers and networked audiovisual equipment

Key specifications

• Connector type: RJ45 socket for 8P8C modular plugs
• Cabling: unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) support for standard Ethernet cable categories
• Mounting: wall-mounted outlet compatible with standard electrical wall boxes
• Finish: low-profile faceplate designed for visible wall installation
• Contact design: fixed female contacts for repeated insertion/removal cycles

How to use

Install the LAN socket by mounting it into a compatible wall box and terminating the incoming UTP cable conductors to the rear connection points according to the chosen wiring scheme (T568A or T568B). After securing the module to the box and attaching the faceplate, plug an Ethernet patch cable into the RJ45 socket to connect network devices. Ensure cable pairs are correctly aligned and that excess untwisting at the termination is minimized to maintain signal integrity.

Usage recommendations

Use the MACLEAN MCE725B with appropriate category-rated UTP cables and avoid environments requiring shielded solutions. For best performance, follow standard termination practices, test each port after installation with a cable tester, and maintain proper cable management to reduce stress on the connector.
