Optical Cable Corp. K6A02 Cat6a Keystone Jack Utp

Product Description

The OPTICAL CABLE CORP. K6A02 is a Cat6A unshielded twisted pair (UTP) keystone modular jack designed for structured cabling installations. This black-finish insert terminates Cat6A cabling and provides a flush-mount connection point in standard keystone wall plates, patch panels, and surface-mount boxes. It supports the higher bandwidth and frequency demands of Cat6A infrastructure, making it a practical choice for data cabling runs in commercial and residential network environments. Licensed low-voltage cabling technicians and network infrastructure installers are the primary trade handling this component.

This jack is suited for Cat6A horizontal cabling terminations in commercial office buildouts, data centers, school and healthcare facilities, and structured wiring closets. It fits into standard keystone-style wall plates and patch panels, allowing integration into new installations or retrofit projects where upgraded Cat6A performance is required. The UTP design eliminates the need for grounding infrastructure, simplifying deployment in typical open-office or drop-ceiling cable runs.

Key Features

• Cat6A UTP rating supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications
• Keystone modular jack format fits standard wall plates and patch panels
• Black finish for clean, finished appearance in visible installations
• Unshielded design simplifies termination without grounding requirements
• Single-unit packaging for flexible quantity ordering

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for Cat6A keystone modular connector and insert applications in standard keystone infrastructure systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage cabling technician following TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Disconnect or de-energize any active network equipment before terminating jacks in live patch panels. Use a 110-style punch-down tool for proper termination; avoid stretching or untwisting cable pairs beyond the minimum required for termination. Follow local building codes and fire-stop requirements when routing cabling through wall cavities or plenum spaces.
