The Signamax Category 6 Unscreened MT-Series Keystone Jacks
have been designed to meet the need for today’s high-bandwidth
applications. These connectors are slim in prole for the highest
density applications and have the ability to mount either color-
coded icons for service identication or dust covers to protect
unused jacks from dust and other contaminants.
The contact design provides enhanced plug-to-jack connection
integrity, protects against damage caused by insertion of 4- or
6-position plugs. Special design features allow these jacks to be
terminated with a standard 110 single-position tool or with the
Signamax four-pair tool, and are rated for a minimum of 750 plug
insertions providing for the highest level of system reliability.
