Shielded CAT 6A Keystone Jack 6-Pack

This six-pack of shielded keystone jacks terminates CAT 6A solid or stranded cables in wall plates, patch panels or surface-mount boxes. The fully shielded housing reduces electromagnetic interference while gold-plated contacts resist corrosion for long-term reliability. Tool-less termination lets installers punch down conductors without a separate crimp tool. The jacks are UL listed and exceed the EIA/TIA-586-C standard.

Sustained interference rejection

Shielding maintains consistent signal integrity on long runs where adjacent power cables or dense bundles would otherwise degrade throughput over time. Gold contacts keep resistance stable through repeated mating cycles and temperature swings in server rooms or office walls. The tool-less mechanism holds each conductor firmly so vibration or thermal cycling does not loosen connections during continuous operation.

Modular mounting for daily changes

Standard keystone footprint fits most patch panels, wall plates and surface boxes, allowing quick reconfiguration when ports are added or moved. Gray colour coding simplifies visual identification in crowded racks. Shielded metal shell grounds automatically through the panel, eliminating a separate bonding step during routine maintenance or expansion.

Questions about this item

Does the shielded metal housing on the FRT-865ST-6 jack generate noticeable heat when PoE devices run continuously?

The fully shielded metal housing acts only as an EMI barrier and ground path; it contains no active electronics, so it produces no measurable heat regardless of PoE load.

What termination tool, if any, is required to punch down solid or stranded CAT 6A conductors into these keystones?

None — the tool-less design uses integrated IDC caps that snap shut by hand, accepting both solid and stranded CAT 6A conductors without a punch-down tool.

Will the gold-plated contacts on this CAT 6A keystone mate reliably with older CAT 5e patch cords I already have installed?

Yes; the RJ45 female jack is backward compatible, so existing CAT 5e or CAT 6 plugs connect mechanically and electrically, though the link will negotiate at the lower category speed.
