TUK Cat6 / Cat6A 8p8c UTP Keystone Socket - Black

The TUK Cat6 / Cat6A 8p8c UTP Keystone Socket provides a professional, high-performance networking solution for modern structured cabling installations. This compact RJ45 socket offers a tool-less termination process, dramatically simplifying and speeding up installations for Cat5e, Cat6, or Cat6A networks while ensuring reliable, long-lasting connections.

Designed for superior performance, the keystone socket meets the Cat6A UTP standard at the component level and is fully compliant with ANSI/TIA-568.2-D specifications. It is also compliant with IEEE 802.3at, making it fully suitable for Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) applications, which is essential for powering devices like wireless access points, VoIP phones, and security cameras directly through the network cable. Its UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) design is optimised for rapid, hassle-free termination.

Constructed for durability, the socket features a robust PC (Polycarbonate) housing rated UL94V-0 for high flame retardancy. The contacts are crafted from nickel-plated phosphor bronze, ensuring excellent conductivity, corrosion resistance, and consistent performance over thousands of insertion cycles. The compact form factor makes this keystone socket ideal for a wide array of applications, from standard wall plates and surface-mount boxes to high-density patch panels in data centres and network cabinets.

Its versatility in mounting options—including both cable and panel mounting—provides installers with great flexibility to suit various project requirements. With a straight connector orientation and unshielded design, it integrates seamlessly into standard UTP cabling infrastructures. This keystone module is an essential component for creating a reliable, high-speed network backbone in commercial, industrial, and residential settings.
