Panduit CJS6X88TGWHY Mini-Com Cat 6A Shielded RJ45 Jack Module
The Panduit CJS6X88TGWHY is a shielded Cat 6A RJ45 jack module engineered for high-performance 10GBASE-T networks in commercial security, datacenter, and AV installations. Part of the Pan-Net Mini-Com modular system, this white TG-style jack eliminates punchdown tools while delivering factory-verified performance that exceeds ANSI/TIA-568.2-D and ISO 11801 channel requirements. Designed for integrators deploying PoE++ cameras, access control panels, or unified communications endpoints, it terminates 22-26 AWG shielded twisted pair cable and supports IEEE 802.3bt Type 4 power delivery (up to 100W) across 2,500 connection cycles. Individual serialization provides end-to-end traceability for asset management and warranty claims in mission-critical installations.
Key Features
- TG (tool-less) termination design — field-terminate shielded cable without a punchdown tool, reducing install time and eliminating the need for specialized equipment on service calls
- Exceeds Cat 6A channel and component performance per ANSI/TIA-568.2-D and ISO 11801 — 100% factory tested to guarantee 10GBASE-T data rates and alien crosstalk (AXT) margins in high-density patch panel environments
- Shielded construction — 360° shield termination maintains end-to-end ground continuity, critical for installations near high-EMI sources (motors, VFDs, fluorescent ballasts) or TEMPEST-rated facilities
- IEEE 802.3bt Type 3/Type 4 PoE++ rated for 2,500 mating cycles — supports multi-radio PTZ cameras, 802.11ax access points, and LED lighting panels drawing up to 100W without contact degradation
- Mini-Com universal footprint — drops into any Panduit Mini-Com faceplate, patch panel, or surface mount box; intermixes with copper, fiber, A/V, and USB modules in a single frame
- Individually serialized — laser-etched unique identifier on each jack enables automated asset tracking, MAC-to-port mapping, and post-installation audit compliance
- UL 2043 plenum rated — approved for use above suspended ceilings and in air-handling spaces without additional conduit, simplifying overhead camera drops and wireless backhaul runs
The TG termination system uses a sliding cap that seats and secures all eight conductors simultaneously, then trims excess wire in a single motion. This design reduces termination errors common with traditional 110-style punchdown blocks — particularly cross-pair shorts and split-pair wiring — and allows faster rework when troubleshooting intermittent link failures. The white housing includes a built-in cable retention clip that grips the jacket (not just the conductors), meeting the TIA-568 pull-force requirement of 25 lbf and preventing strain-related contact failures in cameras subjected to wind load or technician handling during aim adjustments. Shielded performance is maintained through a 360° die-cast shield that bonds to both the cable's drain wire and any metallic faceplates or patch panels, ensuring the shield path remains continuous from switch port to endpoint — a requirement for maintaining the 55 dB alien crosstalk rejection needed in 48-port 10GBASE-T switch environments.
In multi-camera surveillance installations, this jack is typically deployed in plenum-rated modular patch panels at intermediate distribution frames (IDFs) or in surface-mount boxes at camera junction points. The shielded design is essential when cable runs share pathways with AC power feeds, elevator control cables, or lighting circuits — common scenarios in parking garages, industrial facilities, and high-rise office buildings. For datacenter and server room applications, the jack's 2,500-cycle PoE++ rating ensures reliable power delivery to devices that undergo frequent patching during maintenance windows, such as out-of-band management ports on network equipment or KVM extenders. The Mini-Com system's modular architecture allows a single 48-port 2U panel to intermix Cat 6A copper, LC duplex fiber, HDMI, and USB-C jacks without adapter plates, simplifying unified infrastructure buildouts where IP cameras, wireless controllers, and AV-over-IP endpoints share the same rack. The white color designation helps visually segregate security/surveillance networks from production data networks in facilities that enforce physical separation policies for PCI-DSS or NERC-CIP compliance.
This module meets ANSI/TIA-568.2-D component and channel specs, IEC 60603-7 mechanical durability standards, and carries UL 1863 (communications cable) and UL 2043 (plenum) listings. It is RoHS compliant and supports the full IEEE 802.3bt PoE++ power budget, making it suitable for deployments subject to federal procurement restrictions (TAA-compliant when specified on GSA schedules) and installations in air-handling spaces without fire-rated backboxes. The individual serialization and factory test certification provide auditable documentation for projects requiring as-built records, such as government secure facilities, financial trading floors, or healthcare networks subject to HIPAA technical safeguard audits. Sold individually, with 50-unit cartons available for large-scale rollouts.
