METZ BTR Flange Insert RJ45 Module Cat.6 Shielded Keystone Jack 1401100810MI

In modern network installations, achieving reliable high-speed data transmission while maintaining a clean, professional appearance can be a challenge, especially when dealing with shielded cabling in industrial or commercial environments. The METZ BTR Flange Insert RJ45 Module Cat.6 solves this by providing a robust, fully shielded connection point that integrates seamlessly into standard flange openings, ensuring both performance and durability.

Who is it for

This module is ideal for network installers, system integrators, and IT professionals who need a dependable Cat.6 termination point for shielded twisted-pair cabling in patch panels, wall outlets, or equipment housings. It is particularly suited for environments where electromagnetic interference (EMI) is a concern, such as factories, hospitals, or data centers, and where a flange-mount design is required for panel integration.

Main features

• RJ45 jack with Cat.6 performance, supporting frequencies up to 250 MHz for Gigabit Ethernet.
• Fully shielded die-cast zinc housing provides excellent EMI protection and durability.
• Flange insert design allows easy mounting into standard flange openings or keystone-compatible panels.
• Tool-less or simple LSA/IDC termination with color-coded T568A/T568B wiring schemes for quick, error-free installation.
• Gold-plated contacts (0.8 µm) ensure reliable connections and long mating life (>750 cycles).
• Supports Power over Ethernet (PoE, PoE+, 4PPoE) for powering devices like IP cameras or access points.
• Compatible with solid (AWG 24/1 - 22/1) and stranded (AWG 26/7 - 22/7) cables.
• Complies with ISO/IEC 11801, EN 50173, TIA/EIA-568-C.2, and IEC 60603-7-5 standards.

Tips

For optimal performance, use shielded Cat.6 or higher cabling and ensure proper grounding of the module to the panel. When terminating, follow the color-coded labels for either T568A or T568B consistently across the installation. The flange design allows for secure mounting; verify the cutout dimensions match your panel before installation.
