Excel Low profile Modulaire Connector - 100-215-BK

Toolless termination means that the connection of the network cable wires to the jack can be completed without the need for a separate punch-down tool. The design of the IDC (Insulation Displacement Connector) slots allows the wires to be pressed into place, cutting the excess insulation and making the connection simultaneously.

No, this connector is specifically designed for solid conductor (solid core) cables within the AWG 22-26 range. Using stranded cables may result in poor connection and unreliable network performance.

This is a Category 6 connector, which supports data transmission speeds up to 1 Gigabit Ethernet (1000BASE-T).

Yes, this is a standard keystone jack and will fit into any standard keystone-compatible wall plate or patch panel designed to accept this form factor.

'Low profile' indicates that the connector has a reduced depth compared to standard connectors. This allows it to fit into tighter spaces, such as within shallow wall boxes or high-density patch panels where space is limited.

The rear butterfly opening provides a more organized way to route the cable and access the IDC termination points, making the termination process easier and more secure.

No, this is an unscreened (unshielded) keystone jack.

Verify that all 8 conductors are correctly seated in their respective IDC slots and have made proper contact. Ensure the cable is Category 6 compliant and within the specified AWG range. Check that the connector is fully seated in the patch panel or faceplate.

Inspect the termination points for any loose connections or incorrectly punched-down wires. Ensure the cable is not damaged and has not been kinked. Verify that the connected equipment also supports Gigabit Ethernet speeds.

Ensure you are using solid-core cable within the AWG 22-26 range. If using a punch-down tool, ensure it is the correct type for IDC termination. Make sure the cable jacket is stripped back sufficiently but not excessively.
