Keystone Jack ACT CAT6A non blindé à insertion noire TD6016

The ACT CAT6A Keystone Jack is an unshielded punch-down connector designed to provide reliable Ethernet connectivity for structured cabling installations. This black keystone jack accepts RJ45 plugs and uses IDC punch-down contacts for solid conductance with Category 6A cabling. Its compact keystone form factor fits standard wall plates, patch panels and surface-mount boxes, offering a clean, low-profile connection point for network devices.

Advantages

The unshielded CAT6A design supports higher-frequency signaling for 10 Gigabit Ethernet over copper where U/UTP cabling is used. IDC punch-down terminations reduce the need for tool-intensive splicing and provide consistent contact pressure for long-term reliability. The black housing provides a discreet appearance in mixed installations while the keystone format ensures compatibility with common faceplates and panels. Construction materials and contact plating are selected to maintain signal integrity and mechanical durability under repeated insertions.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet over Category 6A unshielded cabling (U/UTP)
• Wall plates, patch panels and modular faceplates in offices and data rooms
• Home network outlets and small business wiring projects
• Retrofit or new structured cabling installations requiring keystone modules

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6A unshielded (U/UTP) keystone jack
• Connector type: RJ45 jack with IDC (insulation displacement) punch-down termination
• Number of ports: single module (keystone)
• Performance: supports frequencies up to 500 MHz for Cat6A applications
• Compliance: designed for Category 6A channel performance when used with compatible cabling and installation practices
• Housing color: black
• Mounting format: standard keystone snap-in module for faceplates and panels

How to use

Terminate each conductor of the Category 6A cable into the IDC slots following the color-coded wiring scheme printed on the jack. Use a proper punch-down tool to seat and trim individual conductors cleanly into the IDC contacts. Snap the keystone jack into the selected faceplate, patch panel or surface-mount box until it locks. After installation, verify continuity and pair integrity with a cable tester that measures Cat6A parameters and checks for wiring correctness before connecting active network equipment.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this unshielded keystone jack with certified Cat6A U/UTP cable and maintain proper cable management to avoid excessive bends and untwisting at termination points. Follow industry-standard wiring practices and verify link performance with a standards-compliant tester. Avoid installing this unshielded module in environments with strong electromagnetic interference unless appropriate mitigation is in place.
