Hubbell HJS6AGY Category 6A Shielded Jack

Overview

The Hubbell HJS6AGY Nextspeed Ascent Category 6A shielded jack provides a robust termination point for high-speed data networks. Designed for demanding environments, its Cobra-Lock termination system ensures a secure and reliable connection, minimizing signal loss and interference. This gray-faced jack is critical for ensuring the integrity of Category 6A cabling infrastructure in commercial and industrial settings, supporting data rates up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet.

Compatibility

This jack is engineered for use with Category 6A shielded twisted-pair (STP) copper cabling. It is designed to terminate standard 23-26 AWG solid or stranded conductors. The Cobra-Lock termination mechanism is compatible with standard punch-down tools, facilitating integration into existing network infrastructure. It is suitable for patch panels, surface mount boxes, and wall plates designed for keystone jacks.

Installation Notes

The Cobra-Lock termination requires a standard punch-down tool to seat the conductors. Ensure proper cable preparation, including untwisting pairs only as much as necessary at the termination point, to maintain Category 6A performance standards and minimize crosstalk. The shielding must be properly connected to the jack's grounding mechanism to ensure effective EMI/RFI rejection.
