Description

Our RJ45 to 110 Category 6 keystone jack is designed to support 1000 base-T Ethernet over copper. Category 6 keystone jacks snap into a wall plate, surface mount box or keystone patch panel to provide a termination point for backbone/horizontal network wiring. Color coded 110 clips make wire termination fast and simple and feature the appropriate color code for either 568A or 568B terminations.

CATEGORY 6

Category 6 cable, commonly referred to as Cat 6, is a standardized twisted pair cable for Ethernet and other network physical layers that is backward compatible with the Category 5/5e and Category 3 cable standards. The cable provides performance of up to 250 MHz and is suitable for 10BASE-T, 100BASE-T, and 1000BASE-T for distances of up to 100 meters, and 10GBASE-T for distances up to 55 meters.

CABLING STANDARDS

Network cabling standards are used internationally and are published by ISO/IEC, CENELEC and the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA). Since 1995, solid-conductor UTP cables for backbone cabling is required to be no thicker than 22 AWG and no thinner than 24 AWG, or 26 AWG for shorter-distance cabling.
