Overview

Category 5e High-Density Keystone Jacks exceed component, permanent link and channel transmission requirements as defined in ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 providing a sound platform for supporting network operating systems including Gigabit Ethernet. The high-density jack is slim profile and ideal for use with our high-density field-configurable patch panels.

Category 5e jacks can be terminated with industry standard 110 single-position tools and feature color-coding for both T568A and T568B wiring schemes. Jacks feature the ability to mount either color-coded icon tabs for service identification or dust covers to pro-tect unused jacks from dust and other contaminants. Jacks are available in nine colors and are supplied with color-matched icon tabs and dust covers for voice or data identification.
