Ortronics KS6A-44 Cat6 Keystone Jack Yellow

Product Description

The ORTRONICS KS6A-44 is a Category 6 keystone jack designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential environments. This modular connector insert terminates Cat6 twisted-pair copper cabling and snaps into standard keystone-style wall plates, patch panels, and surface-mount boxes. The yellow color coding supports industry-standard port identification and cable management practices. Licensed cabling technicians and low-voltage contractors install this jack as part of voice, data, and network infrastructure projects where reliable gigabit-speed connectivity is required at the outlet level.

This jack is suited for horizontal cabling runs in office build-outs, data centers, schools, healthcare facilities, and light industrial environments. It is used wherever a field-terminated Cat6 outlet is needed at a workstation, wall drop, or consolidation point. The unit is sold individually, making it practical for single-port additions or large-scale structured wiring projects alike.

Key Features

• Category 6 performance rating supports gigabit Ethernet and high-speed data applications
• Keystone form factor fits standard wall plates, patch panels, and surface-mount enclosures
• Yellow color coding enables quick visual identification of port type or network segment
• Modular insert design allows field termination without specialized crimping equipment
• Sold as a single unit for flexible procurement on projects of any scale

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and new-installation component for standard keystone-format Cat6 modular connector applications in structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage technician or structured cabling professional familiar with TIA-568 wiring standards. De-energize any active patch panels or PoE switches before terminating cables at the jack. A punch-down tool is typically used to seat conductors into the IDC contacts. Follow local building codes and applicable standards for cable routing, bend radius, and pull tension to maintain Category 6 channel performance.
