ACT CAT5e UTP keystone jack RJ45 punch down sort TD5012

The ACT TD5012 is a CAT5e unshielded keystone jack that keeps installation simple: punch-down IDC terminals on the back accept 22–26 AWG solid or stranded conductors, while the front RJ45 port provides a secure connection for standard patch cables. Its black ABS housing snaps into any standard keystone wall plate or patch panel, making it a direct fit for structured cabling jobs where a low-profile, reliable jack is required.

Highlights

• CAT5e performance for Gigabit Ethernet up to 100 MHz
• Unshielded (UTP) design for typical indoor LAN runs
• Tool-free punch-down termination with colour-coded TIA/EIA 568A/B wiring
• Gold-plated contacts (50µm) resist corrosion and maintain signal integrity
• Durable ABS plastic housing rated for over 750 mating cycles

In daily use

Terminate horizontal cables at the wall outlet or patch panel, then plug in a patch lead to connect devices. The IDC slots are clearly marked for both 568A and 568B schemes, and the jack fits flush into standard keystone openings. No special tools are needed beyond a standard punch-down tool.
