DataGate PlusTM Connector

This superior connector features a unique integral shutter that not only protects the connector from dust and contaminants, but the ingenious spring-loaded design also ejects improperly inserted patch cords. The DataGate Plus Connector is dual colour coded for either 568A or 568B wiring schedules and is RJ11 compatible.

Suitable for high-speed data transmission, the DataGate Plus Category 6 Connector has been designed to exceed the highest electrical performance standards in the industry and has been independently tested and verified by Intertek ETL SEMKO for Category 6 component compliance. The DataGate Plus Connector is also backwards compatible with Category 5e systems.

The DataGate Plus Connector has been utilised in an updated and enlarged PowerCat 6 product range that has been designed to offer feature rich products that cater for any Category 6 installation type.


PowerCat 6 Patch Panels

Available as 1U 24 port or 2U 48 port configurations, our PowerCat 6 Patch Panels are manufactured in a variety of formats to best suit your cabling requirements. Each port features a patented spring-loaded shutter which prevents incomplete mating and protects from dust and contaminants. The patented IDC V-shaped contacts flex not fatigue when terminated. The dual colour coding of this panel allows for 568A/B wiring configuration. This patch panel offers both front and rear labelling and is constructed of cold-rolled steel for additional strength and durability.

Category 6 4 Pair IDC

The 4 Pair IDC block is a high performance connector capable of providing high speed data transmission. The design utilises split-pair technology to provide Category 6 performance.


Category 6 PDS Patch Cords

Category 6 PDS Patch Cords are available as 4 Pair to 4 Pair assemblies or 4 Pair to RJ45 variants. The connector is polarised to prevent accidental reversal and integral strain relief holds the cable in place.
