Panduit NetKey Cat6a Keystone Jack
The Panduit NK6X88MBL is a Category 6A UTP RJ45 keystone punchdown jack module in black. It terminates 4-pair 2226 AWG twisted pair cable and fits standard keystone faceplates, patch panels and surface-mount boxes. Each jack is individually serialized for traceability and ships new from the factory.
Sustained Category 6A performance
Every module is 100 percent factory tested to exceed industry standard performance requirements for Category 6A and Class EA links. Contacts are plated with 50 microinches of gold to maintain low resistance and reliable signal integrity over the full channel length. The ABS housing and polycarbonate wire cap provide mechanical stability that supports consistent throughput under continuous load.
Straightforward punchdown installation
The jack uses a punchdown termination style compatible with both T568A and T568B wiring schemes, so installers can follow the colour-coded label without special tooling beyond a standard impact tool. Common issues include untwisting pairs too far back or seating wires in the wrong slot, which degrades Category 6A margins. The black housing can make label visibility harder in dim lighting.

Questions about this item
Does the keystone module generate noticeable heat when it stays powered all day?
The jack is a passive component with no active circuitry, so it produces no measurable heat during continuous operation.
What existing patch panel or faceplate must I already own to snap this black keystone into place?
It fits any standard keystone opening such as NetKey faceplates, modular patch panels or surface-mount boxes.
Will the 50 microinch gold contacts mate reliably with the older Cat5e patch cords I plan to keep using?
Yes, the RJ45 interface is backward compatible and the gold-plated contacts maintain low resistance with existing Cat5e or Cat6 cords.
