Wirepath WP-CAT5E-RJ45-180-WH Cat 5e RJ45 Keystone Insert

Product Description

The WIREPATH WP-CAT5E-RJ45-180-WH is a Cat 5e RJ45 keystone insert finished in white. Keystone inserts terminate structured wiring runs at wall plates, patch panels, and surface-mount boxes, converting raw cable ends into clean, toolless-patch connections. This insert is designed for 180-degree straight-through termination, keeping the cable path flush with the faceplate and reducing bend stress at the termination point. Low-voltage installers and network cabling technicians use this type of insert as the endpoint for horizontal runs in residential and light commercial structured wiring systems.

This insert is suited for residential and light commercial low-voltage installations where Cat 5e performance is specified. Typical applications include home automation wiring, security system data runs, and general Ethernet distribution within structured wiring enclosures or standard wall-plate assemblies. The white finish coordinates with most standard decorator-style faceplates.

Key Features

• Cat 5e rated termination for data and network cabling applications
• RJ45 keystone form factor fits standard keystone wall plates and patch panels
• 180-degree straight-through port orientation reduces cable strain at the faceplate
• White finish for clean, finished appearance in decorator-style installations
• Single-unit packaging for individual replacement or small-run installs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or addition for standard keystone-style wall plates, patch panels, and surface-mount boxes that accept universal keystone inserts.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed low-voltage technicians or structured wiring installers. De-energize any nearby powered components before beginning termination work. A punch-down tool is commonly required to seat conductors into the keystone IDC contacts. Follow TIA-568 wiring standards for consistent termination across the installation.
