Leviton Telcom 17D23-G Female Detachable Plug Tap

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM 17D23-G is a female detachable plug tap nose connector designed for low-voltage telecommunications and data wiring applications. This hardware accessory provides a reliable termination point in structured wiring systems, allowing technicians to make or break connections without cutting or splicing conductors. The detachable nose design supports quick field service and reconfiguration. Sold individually, the 17D23-G is a direct-replacement component used by low-voltage and telecom technicians in both residential and light commercial installations.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed low-voltage or telecommunications technicians. De-energize or disconnect the associated telephone or data circuit before handling termination hardware. Follow applicable local codes and TIA/EIA wiring standards for structured cabling work. Avoid over-inserting or forcing the detachable nose into the housing, as this may damage the contact interface.
