SpeedTerm™ Keystone Jacks

SpeedTerm is Networx's one-motion termination system for Cat6 and Cat6A keystone jacks. The jacks work with a standard 110 punch-down tool, but Networx's dedicated SpeedTerm tool seats and trims all conductors in a single clamping motion instead of punching each one down individually, speeding up installation.

It's the dedicated termination tool for Networx's Cat6 and Cat6A 90 Degree SpeedTerm keystone jacks, used to seat and terminate all the conductors in one action instead of punching each one down individually. Networx makes a separate SpeedTerm tool for 180 Degree jacks — always match the tool to your jack's angle (90 or 180 Degree), not just its category rating.

It terminates a Cat6 network cable run into a keystone-cut wall plate, surface mount box, or patch panel, providing a fixed RJ45 port to plug network equipment into.

Both terminate Cat6 cable the same way — the difference is the angle the cable exits the back of the jack. 90 Degree exits at a right angle, useful in shallow wall boxes; 180 Degree exits straight back, useful when there's more room behind the jack.

Both are quick-termination designs that avoid a standard punch-down tool, but they use different mechanisms — SpeedTerm is Networx's branded termination system, most commonly used with its dedicated SpeedTerm tool, while the Tool-less version terminates by hand without any tool at all.

The 90 Degree version is available in Beige, Black, Blue, Gray, Green, Ivory, Orange, Red, White, and Yellow. The 180 Degree version is available in Red.

No, these are UTP (unshielded twisted pair) jacks. For a shielded option, see the Cat6A keystone jack line.

It terminates a Cat6A network cable run into a keystone-cut wall plate, surface mount box, or patch panel, providing a fixed RJ45 port rated for Cat6A's higher bandwidth and 10 Gigabit Ethernet runs.

Cat6A uses the same wiring but is built to a tighter performance spec, supporting full 10 Gigabit Ethernet over the standard 100-meter run length, whereas Cat6 only supports 10 Gigabit over shorter distances. Cat6A itself isn't inherently shielded — this lineup offers both unshielded (UTP) and shielded (STP) Cat6A versions.

The unshielded (UTP) versions use standard twisted-pair construction. The shielded (STP) version adds a metal shield around the jack to block EMI/RFI interference, useful in electrically noisy environments or dense cable runs.
