Netværksdåse ShiverPeaks BASIC-S Cat. 5e 2-port flush mount

The ShiverPeaks BASIC-S Cat. 5e 2-Port Flush Mount network socket provides two RJ45 ports for Cat5e Ethernet connections in a flush-mounted wall outlet. Designed for structured cabling in residential and small office environments, the module supports wired LAN connections for computers, VoIP phones and other networked devices while fitting standard faceplates and in‑wall installation boxes.

Advantages

This two-port flush mount socket offers a compact, low-profile solution for terminating Cat5e cabling with reliable electrical contact and stable mechanical fixation. Its compatibility with standard wall plates and in-wall installation makes it straightforward to integrate into existing structured cabling systems. The unit is optimized for Cat5e performance, enabling data transfer rates typical for Fast Ethernet and many Gigabit scenarios over appropriate cabling and terminations.

Suitable for

• Home Ethernet networks requiring two RJ45 outlets in one location
• Small office or SOHO structured cabling installations
• VoIP phone and desktop network device connections
• Replacement or upgrade of existing flush-mount faceplates to Cat5e

Key specifications

• Connector type: 2 × RJ45 ports
• Category: Cat5e (performance class for up to 1000BASE-T where cabling and terminations permit)
• Mounting: Flush/in-wall installation compatible with standard faceplates
• Termination: IDC or punch-down compatible contacts for solid/copper conductors
• Form factor: Dual-port single-module for compact wall outlet

How to use

Install the socket in a standard in-wall mounting box and attach a compatible faceplate. Terminate the incoming Cat5e cables onto the module contact points according to the T568A or T568B wiring standard, ensuring correct pair arrangement and secure punches to maintain signal integrity. After termination, fasten the module into the faceplate and secure the faceplate to the wall box. Test each RJ45 port with a network cable tester to verify continuity and correct pairing before connecting active equipment.

Recommendations

Use quality Cat5e stranded or solid cabling and follow either T568A or T568B consistently throughout the installation. Keep cable runs away from strong electromagnetic interference sources and maintain appropriate bend radius at terminations. For Gigabit Ethernet performance, ensure cabling and patch cords are rated for the required speed and verify with a certified network tester.
