TUK Cat6 / Cat6A 8p8c UTP Keystone Socket White

The TUK Cat6 / Cat6A 8p8c UTP Keystone Socket is a single-port RJ45 keystone socket for structured cabling, supporting Cat5e, Cat6 and Cat6A networks with a tool-less termination process. Finished in white, it is designed for installers working with unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cabling.

Overview

This compact keystone socket allows tool-less termination, which simplifies installation for Cat5e, Cat6 and Cat6A networks. It meets the Cat6A UTP standard at component level and is compliant with ANSI/TIA-568.2-D specifications. It is also compliant with IEEE 802.3at, making it suitable for Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) applications.

Key Features

• Tool-less termination for Cat5e, Cat6 and Cat6A cabling
• Meets the Cat6A UTP standard at component level
• Compliant with ANSI/TIA-568.2-D and IEEE 802.3at
• Suitable for PoE+ applications
• Unshielded (UTP) design with straight connector orientation
• Cable and panel mounting options
• Housing in PC (Polycarbonate), rated UL94V-0 for flame retardancy
• Contacts in nickel-plated phosphor bronze

Construction and Dimensions

The polycarbonate housing is rated UL94V-0 for high flame retardancy. The nickel-plated phosphor bronze contacts provide conductivity and corrosion resistance. The socket measures 2.2 (width) x 0.2 (depth) x 3.3 (height) and weighs 10 gm.

Applications

Suitable for standard wall plates and surface-mount boxes, as well as high-density patch panels in data centres and network cabinets. Its mounting flexibility suits a range of project requirements in commercial, industrial and residential settings.

The TUK Cat6 / Cat6A 8p8c UTP Keystone Socket is a practical choice for installers seeking a compact RJ45 termination point for PoE+ and standard UTP networks.
