How to Install the NetKey Category 6 Jack Module

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing and terminating the NetKey Category 6 Jack Module (NK6TMRD).

Estimated time: 45m

Tools needed:

Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Multimeter

Supplies needed:

Mounting screws, Terminal connectors

  1. Prepare the cable

    Strip the outer insulation of the cable to expose the inner conductors, ensuring you do not damage them.

  2. Terminate the conductors

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

  3. Secure the termination

    Once the conductors are in place, cut them flush with the cap and ensure they are secure. Avoid bending the cable to prevent termination failure.

  4. Mount the jack module

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

  5. Verify the installation

    Use a multimeter to check the continuity and proper termination of the connections to ensure functionality.
