Netwerkcontactdoos 2x RJ-45 ShiverPeaks 74280-R Cat6a 500 MHz rood metaal mat

The ShiverPeaks 2x RJ-45 socket-outlet is a metal faceplate designed for structured network installations requiring Cat6a performance. It provides two RJ-45 ports compatible with Category 6a cabling and supports data transmission up to 500 MHz. The outlet has a matt red finish and a robust metal housing that resists wear in commercial and residential environments. Supplied as a single-piece unit, it integrates into standard multi-gang mounting systems and is intended for fixed wall or outlet box installation.

Advantages

The metal construction increases durability and shielding compared with plastic faceplates, helping to reduce electromagnetic interference in high-density installations. Supporting Cat6a and frequencies up to 500 MHz, the unit accommodates high-bandwidth applications and future-proofs cabling infrastructure. The matt red finish provides a distinct visual identification for specific network segments or safety circuits while maintaining a low-reflectance surface suitable for professional environments.

Suitable for

• Structured Ethernet cabling with Cat6a cables
• Office networks, server rooms, and data cabinets
• High-bandwidth applications such as 10 Gigabit Ethernet
• Environments requiring enhanced mechanical robustness and shielding

Key specifications

• Connector type: 2 × RJ-45 ports
• Cabling category: Cat6a compatibility
• Frequency support: up to 500 MHz
• Housing material: metal with matt finish
• Color: red
• Mounting: compatible with standard wall/outlet box installations
• Packaging: single-piece supply

How to use

Install the outlet in a compatible wall box or faceplate frame according to local electrical and building codes. Terminate Cat6a cables onto the rear RJ-45 connectors following the chosen termination scheme (T568A or T568B) and verify pair continuity and performance with appropriate network testers. After termination, secure the housing to the mounting box and attach any cover or trim pieces. Ensure connectors are fully seated and cables are routed to avoid excessive bend radii or mechanical strain.

Recommendations

For best performance, use with certified Cat6a or higher cabling and maintain testing records after installation. Avoid exposing the metal faceplate to corrosive environments and provide proper grounding and cable management in installations where EMI suppression is required.
