C2G 35217 CAT6 SHIELDED 90 KEYSTONE JACK
Overview
The C2G 35217 is a 90-degree shielded keystone jack designed for terminating Cat6 shielded twisted pair (STP) cabling. It ensures robust network connections by providing superior protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), critical for maintaining signal integrity in environments with high electrical noise or sensitive data transmission needs. This jack is ideal for structured cabling installations in commercial buildings, data centers, or industrial settings where network performance and reliability are paramount.
Compatibility
This keystone jack is compatible with standard keystone wall plates, patch panels, and surface mount boxes that accept standard keystone connectors. It is designed for use with Cat6 shielded twisted pair (STP) Ethernet cable, supporting data transmission rates up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) and bandwidth up to 550 MHz. It is suitable for integration into existing network infrastructure requiring shielded connectivity.
Installation Notes
Termination requires a standard punch-down tool (e.g., 110-type) to seat the wires into the IDC connectors. Ensure the cable's shield is properly connected to the jack's shielding mechanism to achieve full EMI/RFI protection. Follow TIA/EIA-568-C.2 standards for proper wire termination order (color-coded on the jack). The 90-degree angle facilitates neat cable management in tight spaces, such as behind patch panels or within wall boxes.
