CAT 5e modular coupler, shielded RJ45 to RJ45, for panel connection

• The cat. 5e keystone module with 2 RJ45 jacks and 360° shielding supports speeds of up to 1 GBit/s & 100 MHz in connection with cat. 5e or higher network cables
• In combination with a modular patch panel or consolidation point housing, the connection module is suitable, for example, for tidy cabling between server and network cabinets
• In addition to patch fields, the potential areas of use for keystone couplings include module network sockets and keystone brackets for profile rail installation in sub-distribution units
• A stable plastic locking lever is located on the top of the keystone jack for fastening into the intended recesses on junction boxes and patch fields
• The network coupling features a 1:1 pin allocation and, in line with the network category Cat 5e, is compatible with all Ethernet and telecommunications cables with RJ45 plug

The modular couplers from DIGITUS® are shielded and provide best performance and link quality for your network. They are equipped with 2 RJ45 sockets with the assignment 1:1 and are therefore suitable for mounting in Patch Panels.
