Where This Jack Is Used

This keystone jack suits any structured cabling project that relies on standard keystone-compatible patch panels, wall plates, or surface mount boxes. It's a practical choice for offices, schools, data cabinets, and residential installs where a dedicated Cat6 termination point is needed for voice, data, or network segmentation. The 180-degree entry style makes it well suited to installations with generous cable slack, such as open patch panels, while the green colour helps installers quickly trace specific circuits, such as a particular VLAN, department, or security network, across a busy rack or wall plate layout.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does this jack require a special termination tool?
A: No special proprietary tool is required; termination uses the jack's built-in IDC connector with a standard punch-down tool for a secure connection.

Q: Is this jack compatible with Cat5e cabling?
A: While designed and rated for Cat6 performance, the keystone jack's standard footprint and IDC design mean it can also terminate Cat5e cable, though Cat6 cable is recommended to achieve full rated performance.

Q: Will this jack fit standard wall plates and patch panels?
A: Yes, it uses the universal keystone footprint, so it snaps directly into any standard keystone-compatible wall plate, surface mount box, or patch panel.
