Opbouwdoos ACT FA5000 onafgeschermd 8-poorts Cat5e — 171,4×38×118,8 mm

ACT FA5000 is a surface-mounted unshielded network box designed to accommodate eight Cat5e RJ45 terminations in a compact enclosure measuring 171.4 × 38 × 118.8 mm. Intended for small network installations, patch panels or wall-mounted applications, the box provides a tidy and accessible location to terminate and organize horizontal cabling where shielded protection is not required. The enclosure supports IDC style connections compatible with both 110 and Krone tools for straightforward installation and maintenance.

Advantages

The surface-mounted box offers a space-efficient solution for distributing Ethernet connections without the need for recessed mounting. Its unshielded design is suitable for standard Cat5e performance in environments with limited electromagnetic interference. Compatibility with 110 and Krone IDC termination tools speeds up wiring and reduces the need for specialized equipment. The durable housing maintains cable organization and protects terminations from physical disturbance while allowing easy access for changes or troubleshooting.

Suitable for

• Small office or home LAN terminations
• Patching multiple Cat5e runs in a confined area
• Wall-mounted network outlet installations
• Temporary or permanent voice and data connections

Key specifications

• Number of ports: 8 Cat5e RJ45 terminations
• Mounting type: Surface-mounted enclosure
• Shielding: Unshielded (UTP)
• Compatible termination: IDC compatible with 110 and Krone tools
• External dimensions: 171.4 × 38 × 118.8 mm
• Material: Rigid plastic housing for cable protection and organization

How to use

Mount the enclosure on a flat surface using appropriate screws or anchors for the substrate. Route Cat5e cables into the box through entry points, maintain proper bend radius, and strip outer jackets to expose conductor pairs. Terminate each conductor into the IDC blocks according to the chosen wiring standard (T568A or T568B), using a 110 or Krone tool to make secure terminations. Close the box and secure the cover to protect the terminations; label ports if necessary for easier identification and maintenance.

Recommendations

Use this surface-mounted box for standard Cat5e installations in low-EMI environments. Keep cable runs within Cat5e distance limits and avoid placing the unshielded enclosure near strong electrical sources that could cause interference. For environments with significant electromagnetic interference or where grounding is required, consider using shielded enclosures and cabling instead.
