FAQs

What is the purpose of the keystone jacks?

Keystone jacks are used to connect the network cables to the face plate, providing a standardized and easy-to-use connection point.

Can I use this face plate with Cat5e cables?

Yes, while the face plate supports Cat6, it is backward compatible with Cat5e cables. However, you will only achieve the performance of the lower-rated cable (Cat5e).

What tools do I need to install this face plate?

You will need a punch-down tool (also known as an IDC tool) to terminate the network cables into the keystone jacks, as well as wire strippers to prepare the cables.

Is this face plate suitable for surface mounting?

No, this face plate is designed to be recessed into a double-gang back box for a flush, clean finish.

What is the warranty on this product?

The warranty information is not available in the product data.

How do I remove the keystones?

Use a small flathead screwdriver or a similar tool to gently pry the keystones out from the back of the face plate.

Where should I use solid core network cable?

Use solid core network cable in walls and under floorboards etc. It is not as flexible but better for this type of usage long distances and the best speeds.

Troubleshooting

Network connection is slow.

Check the cable connections at both ends. Ensure the cables are properly terminated and that the connectors are securely seated. Verify that the network cable is Cat6 compliant for optimal speed.

No network connection.

Make sure all cables are properly connected to the keystone jacks. Verify that the network switch or router is powered on and functioning correctly. Check the network settings on your devices.

Face plate doesn't fit in the back box.

Ensure the back box is a standard double-gang size. If the back box is not properly installed or too small, you may need to adjust the mounting or replace the back box.
