Opbouw afgeschermde aansluitdoos ACT FA7004, 2-poorts CAT6A

ACT FA7004 is a surface-mounted shielded outlet box designed to accommodate two CAT6A ports for high-speed network connections. The metal-shielded enclosure provides electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) protection, making it suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications where cabling must be mounted on walls, desks or other surfaces. The compact, durable construction supports structured cabling endpoints in small offices, home environments and locations that require reduced electromagnetic interference for stable, high-performance data transmission.

Advantages

The ACT FA7004 offers a fully shielded metal housing that helps minimize signal degradation and external interference. Its surface-mounted design simplifies installation when in-wall cabling is not possible or practical. The box accepts two CAT6A jacks, enabling dual-port network endpoints for redundancy or separate network segments, and its robust construction ensures reliable mechanical protection for terminations and connectors.

Suitable for

• Surface-mounted Ethernet outlets in offices and homes
• 10 Gigabit Ethernet CAT6A installations requiring shielding
• Workstations, meeting rooms and desk-mounted network points
• Structured cabling endpoints where in-wall installation is not feasible

Key specifications

• Form factor: surface-mounted outlet box
• Shielding: metal shielded enclosure for EMC protection
• Port capacity: 2 CAT6A ports (double keystone/insert compatible)
• Application: supports up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance over CAT6A
• Mounting: external/surface mounting on wall or desk
• Material: durable metal housing for mechanical and shielding protection

How to use

Mount the ACT FA7004 on a suitable flat surface using appropriate screws or mounting hardware. Install compatible shielded CAT6A keystone jacks into the two port openings and terminate the shielded twisted-pair cables according to category 6A wiring standards. Ensure the cable shields are properly bonded to the box to maintain EMC performance. After termination, secure the cable and connectors inside the enclosure and fasten the cover to complete the installation.

Recommendations

Use shielded CAT6A cables and compatible shielded keystone jacks to achieve full EMI protection. Maintain proper shield continuity by connecting the cable drain wire to the box grounding point or to the building ground. For permanent installations, verify terminations and test each port for performance up to 10 Gbps using appropriate network certification tools.
