Hubbell HXJ5EW Cat5e Keystone Jack

Overview

The Hubbell HXJ5EW is a Cat5e keystone jack designed for structured cabling installations where reliable network connectivity is paramount. Its Uni A/B wiring configuration and Quick-Lace towers simplify and accelerate termination, reducing installation time and potential errors in commercial or residential network deployments. The white finish ensures a clean aesthetic in wall plates and patch panels.

Compatibility

This keystone jack is compatible with standard single-gang keystone wall plates, surface mount boxes, and patch panels designed to accept standard keystone modules. It supports Cat5e network cabling, suitable for Gigabit Ethernet (1000BASE-T) and other high-speed data transmission up to 100 MHz. It is designed for use with solid or stranded copper conductors common in structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

The HXJ5EW features Hubbell's Quick-Lace towers, which allow for faster wire termination by seating conductors in a staggered pattern before final crimp. Ensure the cable jacket is stripped to the appropriate length to allow the towers to fully seat the conductors. Use a standard 110-style punch-down tool for termination. Verify wiring against the T568A or T568B standard printed on the jack body.
