Keystone RJ45 Cat6A module Synergy21 S216338V2 500 MHz slim-line

Keystone RJ45 Cat6A module Synergy21 S216338V2 500 MHz slim-line is a compact, shielded connector module designed for structured cabling systems. Engineered to fit standard Keystone wall plates and patch panels, this slim-line module supports Category 6A performance up to 500 MHz, enabling high-speed Ethernet and PoE deployments while conserving space in high-density installations.

Advantages

The slim-line form factor reduces occupied space in patch panels and wall plates without compromising signal integrity. Support for Cat6A performance up to 500 MHz ensures stable data rates and improved alien crosstalk immunity compared with lower category jacks. The module provides reliable termination for 8-position, 8-contact (8P8C) RJ45 connections and is suitable for power-over-Ethernet applications. Its compatibility with common Keystone mounting systems simplifies installation and module replacement.

Suitable for

• Data centers and server rooms requiring high-density cabling
• Small and large office networks supporting Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet
• PoE and PoE+ powered devices such as access points, IP phones and cameras
• Retrofit or new structured cabling projects using Keystone wall plates and patch panels

Key specifications

• Category performance: Class EA / Cat6A, up to 500 MHz
• Connector type: RJ45, 8P8C
• Form factor: slim-line Keystone module for standard Keystone openings
• Shielding: shielded design for improved EMC and crosstalk performance
• Application: supports Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet, PoE and PoE+
• Mounting compatibility: Keystone wall plates and patch panels
• Contact terminations: IDC or punch-down compatible termination for solid and stranded conductors (follow manufacturer termination guide)

How to use

Prepare the network cable by stripping the outer jacket and untwisting pairs according to the T568A or T568B wiring standard required by your installation. Terminate conductors into the module per the color code printed on the module or termination label, using the appropriate punch-down tool to ensure secure contacts. Insert the module into the Keystone opening of a compatible wall plate or patch panel until it snaps into place. Test the terminated link with a suitable network tester to verify continuity, pair integrity and performance up to Cat6A specifications.

Usage recommendations

To maintain Cat6A performance, use high-quality Cat6A-rated cabling and control pair untwist and cable routing to minimize alien crosstalk. Ensure proper grounding when installing shielded modules and follow local cabling standards for PoE power budgets and temperature considerations. Regularly test installed links after termination and before commissioning to confirm expected bandwidth and reliability.
