The ATLAS-X1™ Category 8 Shielded QUICKPORT™ Jack supports 25GBASE-T networks. The shielded jack provides superior alien crosstalk (AXT) suppression and protects critical data from potential EMI/RFI (electromagnetic interference/radio frequency interference). The jack is part of a complete ATLAS-X1 Cat 8 shielded system designed to support next generation BASE-T data center networks.
- Patented Retention Force Technology (RFT) protects against tine damage and increases system longevity
- For Power over Ethernet, RFT maintains contact force between plug and jack, preventing arcing from intermittent disconnects
- Shielding provides EMI/RFI protection, signal isolation, and excellent alien crosstalk (AXT) suppression
- Unique design supports tool-free termination/re-termination and requires no specialized termination tool
- Short connector design supports a wide range of installation practices and improves bend radius of Cat 8 shielded cabling
- Robust IDCs can withstand 20 re-termination cycles and jack contacts are tested for 750 plug-mating cycles to ensure system longevity
- Jack supplied with interchangeable icons (voice, data, AV, and blank, color coded to match the connector face) for easy identification and tracking of data, voice, or other functions
- Bulk icons available separately in 13 colors
- Solid metal body dissipates 53% more heat than plastic, minimizing damage from excess heat in PoE applications
- Tine geometry prevents arcing damage where plug and jack make contact
