FAQs
The differences are:
- Jacks are the RJ45 or other connector that terminates the cable and provides the plug-in point.
- Modules are the housing for the jack, designed for keystone or proprietary mounting systems.
- Faceplates are the visible cover plate that holds one or more modules, providing a neat finish on walls, floors, or ceilings.
Together, they form a complete outlet solution for structured cabling systems.
Select the category based on your network performance requirements:
- Cat5e jacks allow up to 1Gbps, suitable for basic office networks.
- Cat6 jacks allow 1Gbps at 100m, 10Gbps up to 55m, common in small business.
- Cat6A jacks allow 10Gbps up to 100m, the current standard for enterprise/data centers.
- Cat7A & Cat8 jacks for 25-40Gbps short distance links; used in high-performance data center environments.
Always match jacks and modules with the same category rating as your horizontal cabling to ensure compliance.
Accessories include:
- Blanking plates & caps to cover unused ports to protect against dust and maintain aesthetics.
- Shutters provide extra protection against dust ingress.
- Latch protectors & jack adaptors prevent damage to connectors and enable format compatibility.
- Colour coding clips & port identification labels simplify network management by making outlets easy to identify.
These accessories extend the life of your cabling system and make troubleshooting faster.
Types include:
- Surface mount outlets are ideal when in-wall cabling isn’t possible.
- Flush mounted faceplates for clean, professional wall finishes.
- Ceiling connector assemblies provide access for WiFi access points or ceiling mounted devices.
- Industrial outlets are rugged, weather or dust resistant housings for harsh environments.
- Voice modules are specifically designed for telephony applications.
Choosing the right outlet ensures your structured cabling is both functional and suitable for the installation environment.
