Icc IC1078E5RD Cat5e 8P8C Ez Insert Red

Product Description

The ICC INT'L CONNECTORS CABLE IC1078E5RD is a Cat5e EZ-style modular insert with an 8P8C (8-position, 8-conductor) configuration, finished in red for easy port identification. Designed for structured cabling installations, this insert terminates Cat5e horizontal runs at the patch panel, keystone jack location, or outlet faceplate. Electricians, low-voltage technicians, and structured cabling installers use this component to complete voice and data network drops in residential and commercial environments. The red color coding supports industry-standard or custom port labeling schemes, helping technicians distinguish network circuits at a glance during installation and maintenance.

This insert is suited for use in standard keystone-compatible faceplates, surface-mount boxes, and patch panels that accept 8P8C modular inserts. It applies to Cat5e structured cabling systems supporting 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-T Ethernet as well as voice applications. Typical installation scenarios include office data drops, hospitality network buildouts, and residential structured media installations where color-coded port management is required.

Key Features

• Cat5e rated for voice and data network cabling applications
• 8P8C (8-position, 8-conductor) modular insert configuration
• EZ-style termination design for simplified field installation
• Red finish supports color-coded port identification and circuit management
• Sold individually, allowing flexible quantity ordering per job

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation insert for Cat5e modular cabling systems using standard 8P8C keystone-compatible panels, faceplates, and surface-mount enclosures.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians or registered low-voltage technicians in accordance with applicable local codes and TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Ensure patch panel or faceplate power and network links are inactive before terminating conductors. Use the appropriate punch-down or EZ-style termination tool as specified for this insert type. Avoid sharp bends in the Cat5e cable within 1 inch of the termination point to maintain signal integrity.
