How to Install the NetKey Category 6 Jack Module (NK6TMYL)

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing and wiring the NetKey Category 6 Jack Module to ensure proper connectivity.

Estimated time: 30m

Tools needed:

Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Multimeter

Supplies needed:

Mounting screws, Terminal connectors

  1. Mount the jack module

    Secure the jack module to the designated location using mounting screws. Ensure it is firmly attached and level.

  2. Prepare the cable

    Strip the outer insulation of the cable to expose the individual wires. Ensure the conductors are 22-24 AWG solid or stranded.

  3. Terminate the wires

    Follow the T568B wiring sequence to insert the wires into the jack module. Ensure that the blue/white wire overlaps and is parallel to the green wire as specified.

  4. Secure the conductors

    Verify that all conductors are securely in place before cutting them flush with the termination cap. Do not bend the cable during this process.

  5. Test the connection

    Use a multimeter to verify the connectivity of the jack module. Ensure all connections are functioning correctly before finalizing the installation.
