Panduit NK5E88MIWY Cat 5e Keystone Jack Module

Product Description

The PANDUIT NK5E88MIWY is a Cat 5e leadframe keystone jack module designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential network infrastructure. Built around a leadframe termination design, this jack module provides a reliable 8-position, 8-conductor (8P8C) interface that supports 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet connections. It is sold individually and is intended for installation by licensed low-voltage technicians and structured cabling professionals who require consistent, standards-compliant terminations at the workstation outlet or patch panel level.

This jack module is suited for horizontal cabling runs in commercial office environments, data centers, and institutional facilities. It fits into standard keystone-style faceplates, surface-mount boxes, and patch panels that accept keystone inserts, making it a versatile component for new installations and retrofit projects. The leadframe design simplifies field termination by organizing conductors for repeatable, low-error punchdown or cap-style termination.

Key Features

• Cat 5e rated performance supporting 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet
• 8-position, 8-conductor (8P8C) keystone form factor
• Leadframe termination design for consistent, organized conductor placement
• Compatible with standard keystone faceplates, surface-mount boxes, and patch panels
• Sold individually, allowing precise quantity procurement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit component for Cat 5e keystone-based structured cabling systems using standard keystone insert form-factor faceplates and patch panels.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage cabling technician in accordance with ANSI/TIA-568 structured cabling standards. De-energize any connected network equipment before terminating or replacing jack modules. Use an appropriate punchdown tool rated for the termination style of this jack to avoid conductor damage. Verify polarity and pair assignment against the designated wiring scheme (T568A or T568B) before completing termination.
