ShiverPeaks Keystone Jack Cat 8.1 metálico BS08-45003-2, módulo RJ45 blindado para Ethernet de alta velocidade

ShiverPeaks Keystone Jack Cat 8.1 Metal BS08-45003-2 is a shielded RJ45 keystone insert engineered for high-speed Ethernet installations that require Category 8.1 performance. The metal housing and full shielding deliver enhanced protection against electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference and provide a reliable grounding path when mounted in compatible shielded panels, patch panels, or wall plates. This keystone jack supports professional structured cabling environments such as data centers and server rooms where high bandwidth and signal integrity are essential.

Advantages

The metal, shielded construction reduces EMI/RFI susceptibility and helps maintain signal quality in electrically noisy environments. The keystone form factor offers compatibility with standard keystone openings for quick installation into panels and faceplates. Designed to meet high-performance Ethernet requirements, the jack supports short-distance, very high-speed links typical for server-to-switch and switch-to-switch connections. Grounding contact points are integrated to ensure effective shielding when used with shielded housings and panels.

Suitable for

• Data centers and server rooms requiring Category 8.1 performance
• High-density patch panels and modular wall plates
• Professional LAN installations with elevated EMI/RFI exposure
• Short-reach, high-bandwidth connections between switches and servers

Key specifications

• Connector type: RJ45 keystone insert (shielded)
• Cable class: designed for Category 8.1 cabling performance
• Housing material: metal shielding for EMI/RFI protection
• Contact configuration: 8P8C modular contacts suitable for Ethernet
• Mounting: keystone form factor for standard panels, patch panels and faceplates
• Application environment: structured cabling systems in professional networks

How to use

Terminate Category-rated twisted-pair cable onto the keystone jack following the colour code and termination method specified by the cabling standard in use. Insert the terminated keystone module into a compatible shielded panel, patch panel or wall plate until it locks into place. Ensure the panel or faceplate provides a conductive path for the jack’s metal housing to achieve proper grounding and shielding continuity. Test the installed link with appropriate cabling certification or verification tools to confirm performance and continuity.

Recommendations

Use this shielded keystone jack in combination with shielded connectors, patch panels and cables to maintain consistent shielding performance. For installations intended to achieve Category 8.1 performance, keep link lengths within recommended limits and verify installation with certification tools to ensure compliance with high-frequency transmission requirements.
