Prise Keystone ACT CAT5E entièrement blindée à insertion TD5021

The ACT CAT5E Keystone Jack Full Shielded Punch Down TD5021 is a fully shielded RJ45 keystone module designed for terminating Cat5e network cabling in patch panels, wall plates, and keystone housings. Constructed with steel shielding and an IDC punch-down interface, the module provides a compact and robust connection point that reduces electromagnetic interference and preserves signal integrity for typical Ethernet applications up to Cat5e performance.

Advantages

The full metal shielding offers improved protection against external EMI and crosstalk compared with unshielded modules, while the RJ45 interface ensures compatibility with standard Ethernet patch cords. The IDC punch-down termination delivers a reliable and repeatable contact for solid and stranded copper conductors, and the steel construction increases mechanical strength for frequent plugging and installation in demanding environments.

Suitable for

• Structured cabling in offices and commercial buildings
• Residential network outlets and home offices
• Patch panels and wall plate installations
• Environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference

Key specifications

• Category: Cat5e performance level for 100BASE-TX and similar Ethernet standards
• Connector type: RJ45 coupler on the face; insulation displacement contact (IDC) termination on the rear
• Shielding: Full metal/steel shield for improved EMI/RFI protection
• Termination: 8P8C pinout with punch-down IDC suitable for solid and stranded copper conductors
• Mounting format: Keystone module compatible with standard keystone wall plates and patch panels
• Material: Steel housing for durability and mechanical protection

How to use

Prepare the Cat5e cable by stripping the outer jacket to expose the twisted pairs and arrange the conductors according to the required wiring scheme (T568A or T568B). Insert each conductor into the corresponding IDC slot and use a suitable punch-down tool to terminate the wires, ensuring each connection is fully seated. Snap the keystone jack into a compatible wall plate or patch panel opening, then plug an Ethernet patch cable into the RJ45 port to complete the link. Test the terminated link with cable testers or network test equipment to verify continuity and pair integrity.

Recommendations

Use proper punch-down tool technique to avoid damaging contacts and follow Cat5e wiring standards for consistent network performance. In environments with high EMI, ensure grounding continuity through shielded patch panels and use shielded patch cords where necessary to maintain the effectiveness of the steel shielding.
