Keystone Jack ROLINE Cat. 6a RJ-45 unshielded toolless SLIM black

The ROLINE Keystone Jack Cat. 6a is an unshielded, toolless SLIM RJ-45 connector designed for straightforward installation in network panels and keystone frames. It supports high-speed data transmission up to 10 GBit/s with a bandwidth of 500 MHz and uses the EIA/TIA 568 colour code for wiring. The module is supplied in white and fits compatible keystone frames (see compatibility below).

Advantages

The keystone jack provides Cat.6a performance without the need for tools during assembly, simplifying installation and reducing setup time. Its SLIM design is suitable for installations where space is limited, while adherence to EIA/TIA 568 colour coding ensures consistent and standardised termination. The unshielded construction is appropriate for typical network environments where additional shielding is not required.

Suitable for

• 10 GBit/s Ethernet connections
• Patch panels and keystone frames supporting SLIM modules
• Home and small office network installations
• Retrofit or new structured cabling using Cat.6a cabling

How to use

Insert the Cat.6a keystone jack into a compatible keystone frame or panel until it snaps into place. Terminate the network cable according to the EIA/TIA 568 wiring colour code printed on the jack, following the toolless termination procedure specified by the manufacturer. After termination, verify the physical seating in the frame and test the link with appropriate network testing tools to confirm connectivity and performance.

Recommendations

Use this unshielded Cat.6a keystone jack in standard network environments where electromagnetic interference is minimal. For installations exposed to strong interference or where grounding is required, consider using shielded connectors and cabling instead. Always test each link after termination to verify correct wiring and performance.
