METZ CONNECT 130B12D21102-E Cat.6A Shielded RJ45 Module White 130B12D21102E90

For installations where signal integrity cannot be left to chance, the METZ CONNECT 130B12D21102-E stands apart from ordinary RJ45 modules. This Cat.6A shielded module is engineered to deliver full 10-Gigabit Ethernet performance in a compact, white housing that blends discreetly into modern wall plates and patch panels. Its E-DAT modul design ensures consistent termination quality, while the robust shielding and gold-plated contacts maintain stable links even in electrically noisy environments.

Highlights

• Cat.6A (Class EA) performance for 10GBASE-T networks up to 500 MHz
• Fully shielded die-cast housing with integrated strain relief
• Tool-free LSA (IDC) termination for solid and stranded conductors
• Supports Power over Ethernet up to 4PPoE (IEEE 802.3bt)
• White (RAL 9010) colour matches standard faceplates and frames
• Over 750 insertion cycles for long service life

In daily use

Installers will appreciate the straightforward termination process: the module accepts solid wires from AWG 24/1 to AWG 22/1 and stranded wires from AWG 26/7 to AWG 22/7, with colour-coded LSA slots that reduce wiring errors. Once seated in a compatible central plate or patch panel, the module provides a secure, vibration-resistant connection. The gold-plated contacts resist corrosion and maintain low contact resistance, ensuring reliable performance for years. The module's compact footprint allows high-density installations without sacrificing accessibility.
