Cat6/Cat5e keystone jack for patch panels

This keystone jack terminates twisted-pair cable using a 110 style punch-down tool and fits standard keystone faceplates or patch panels. The red housing provides quick visual identification in dense installations. It supports both Cat6 and Cat5e cabling for network drops.

Dual wiring scheme support under continuous use

Colour-coded labels accommodate both 568A and 258A termination patterns so installers can follow site standards without separate parts. The compact casing seats firmly in panels and maintains contact integrity through repeated patching cycles. Compliance with EIA/TIA Cat6 connecting hardware specifications ensures consistent transmission performance.

Red colour coding for circuit segregation

The red finish distinguishes this jack from other colours in the same panel, allowing technicians to trace voice, data or management circuits at a glance. No additional colour rings or labels are required. Buyers who need a different colour identifier should select another variant.

Questions about this item

Does the N238-001-RD keystone jack draw any power or generate heat during continuous operation?

The N238-001-RD is a passive punch-down jack with no active circuitry, so it draws zero power and produces no measurable heat while in use.

What punch-down tool is required to terminate cables on the 110-style IDC contacts of this jack?

A standard 110 punch-down tool is needed to seat each conductor into the dual-color coded IDC slots for either 568A or 258A wiring schemes.

Will this Cat6/Cat5e jack fit the same keystone wall plates and patch panels I already have from older installations?

Yes, the compact casing conforms to the standard keystone footprint, so it mounts in any conventional keystone faceplate, surface-mount box or patch panel.
