Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM 16R21-UY is a male panel receptacle with a taper nose design, used in telecom and low-voltage wiring panel applications. This connector hardware accessory is intended for panel-mount installations where a secure, flush-fitting male interface is required. It is sold individually and is suited for installation by electricians, low-voltage technicians, and telecom wiring professionals working on structured wiring panels, patch installations, or distribution enclosures. The taper nose profile aids in guided mating alignment during connector engagement.

This part is appropriate for residential and light commercial structured wiring, telecom distribution panels, and low-voltage connector panel assemblies. It is typically installed in panel enclosures where male-to-female connector pairs are required for signal or data termination points. Installation is completed individually per connection point, making it suitable for both new construction and retrofit panel wiring projects.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage technician or licensed electrician in accordance with applicable NEC low-voltage wiring guidelines. De-energize the panel or enclosure before installing or replacing any connector hardware. Ensure the panel cutout or mounting hole matches the receptacle body dimensions before securing. Do not force-fit the connector into an incompatible panel opening, as this may damage the taper nose or mounting flange.
