Data and Telephone Sockets
A data and telephone socket is a low-current socket that terminates the in-building data and telephone cable at the wall, with an RJ45 jack for computer networks and an RJ11 jack for telephone lines. In offices, homes and workplaces it is used to connect devices such as computers, printers, modems, IP phones and landline phones to the wall line with a patch cable. This category contains single and double RJ45 CAT5E and CAT6 data sockets, RJ11 CAT3 numeric telephone sockets and models combining both under one cover in the Viko Karre, Meridian and Karre 55 series, and IP54 surface-mounted RJ11 telephone sockets in the Palmiye series. Choose the data category by the installed cable and the targeted network speed, the port count by the number of devices to be connected, and the series and color to match the frame on the wall. Because the lowest-category component determines the class of a link, fitting a CAT5E socket to a CAT6 cable lowers the link to CAT5E level. An RJ11 telephone socket cannot replace an RJ45 data socket for network connection, because an 8-contact RJ45 plug does not fit the narrower RJ11 jack.
