Leviton Telcom 5ESJK-RW5 Cat5e Shielded Keystone Jack

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM 5ESJK-RW5 is a shielded Category 5e keystone jack designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential environments. This modular connector insert provides a secure, shielded termination point for Cat5e horizontal cabling runs, helping maintain signal integrity and reduce electromagnetic interference at the outlet. The white finish suits standard wall plates and patch panels. Licensed low-voltage installers and network technicians are the typical trade professionals handling this component during data infrastructure builds or retrofits.

This jack is suited for use in network outlets, patch panels, and surface-mount enclosures where Cat5e shielded cabling is specified. It fits installations in office buildings, data closets, schools, and light industrial facilities where EMI shielding at the connection point is required by design specifications or local cabling standards. The single-unit packaging makes it practical for small runs or targeted replacements.

Key Features

• Shielded construction reduces electromagnetic interference at the termination point
• Category 5e rated for standard 10/100/1000BASE-T network applications
• Keystone form factor fits standard wall plates, patch panels, and surface-mount boxes
• White finish for clean, professional appearance in finished spaces
• Single-unit quantity for targeted replacements or small-scale deployments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style shielded Cat5e keystone insert compatible with standard keystone wall plates, patch panels, and surface-mount enclosures accepting universal keystone modules.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed low-voltage technicians in accordance with ANSI/TIA-568 structured cabling standards. De-energize any PoE or active equipment connected to the cabling run before terminating. Use a 110-style punch-down tool for proper conductor termination and maintain pair twist as close to the termination point as possible to preserve performance. Ensure the shielding is properly bonded per the installation design to achieve the intended EMI protection.
