EFB Elektronik RJ45 Keystone STP Cat.6A 500MHz Component Certified 24-Pack

The EFB-ELEKTRONIK RJ45 Keystone STP Cat.6A module is a high-performance, shielded keystone jack designed for professional network installations. This component-certified module supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet over twisted-pair copper cabling, ensuring reliable data transmission at frequencies up to 500 MHz. The pack contains 24 units, ideal for populating patch panels or wall plates in data centers, enterprise networks, and structured cabling systems.

Advantages

Engineered with a zinc die-cast housing and gold-plated contacts, this keystone module provides excellent shielding against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and ensures long-term connectivity. The IDC termination is compatible with LSA punch-down tools, supporting 22-24 AWG solid or stranded conductors. It also supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) standards including IEEE 802.3af/at/bt, making it suitable for powering devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, and IoT sensors.
