Key Features
- Rotating Tool-less Module: Specially engineered with a rotating mechanism that simplifies cable routing and adjustments in confined spaces, server racks, or shallow wall outlets.
- One-Motion Termination: Terminates all 8 copper conductors simultaneously in a single, effortless operation. Built-in audio confirmation ensures a secure connection—just listen for the click.
- Fully Reusable Architecture: Avoids component waste from wiring errors. The design allows installers to easily reopen and re-terminate the module over 20 times without signal degradation.
- Optimized Signal Integrity: Mechanically designed to keep untwisted pair lengths and the distance between the conductor end and the IDC contacts to an absolute minimum, suppressing cross-talk.
- Durable Construction: Manufactured with a Polycarbonate (UL 94 V-0) housing, stainless steel cutting blades, tin-plated IDC terminals, and CuSn contacts with 1.2 µm gold plating over nickel for long-term reliability.
