CAT6A Junction Box (Shielded) | 040-375/C6AJ/S

CAT6A JUNCTION BOX (SHIELDED) – 040-375/C6AJ/S 

The 040-375/C6AJ/S CAT6A Shielded Junction Box is the ideal solution for splicing and extending shielded CAT6A cable runs in structured cabling systems. Whether you’re repairing a damaged cable run, extending an existing shielded pull, or terminating mid-span in a structured cabling project, this junction box provides a reliable, code-compliant connection point in a compact housing. Designed for shielded CAT6A applications, the 040-375/C6AJ/S delivers a fully enclosed, EMI-protected splice point that meets category performance requirements without the bulk of a full patch panel — a practical Ethernet junction box for installers working in high-interference environments.

KEY FEATURES

Here’s why this coupler is a dependable solution:

• Shielded CAT6A Performance: Meets or exceeds ANSI/TIA/EIA 568-C.2 and ISO/IEC 11801 performance requirements for Category 6A shielded links.
• Durable Flame-Resistant Housing: ABS + PC jack housing rated UL 94V-0 for fire safety compliance.
• Nickel-Plated Steel Shield: 0.5 mm thick SPCC metal cover provides corrosion-resistant EMI/RFI shielding.
• Universal Wiring Support: Compatible with both T568A and T568B wiring schemes for flexible field termination.
• Broad Conductor Compatibility: Terminates 22–26 AWG stranded and solid copper conductors.
• Termination Tool Compatible: Works with Vertical Cable 110 and Krone punch-down tools for fast, reliable IDC connections.
• Reliable Operating Range: Performs in environments from -10°C to 60°C.
• RoHS Compliant: Meets environmental and safety standards.
• Compact Form Factor: 2.47 in. x 1.37 in. x 0.94 in. fits tight spaces behind walls or in cable trays.
• Bulk Packaging Option: Master bag includes 50 individually packed pieces, sold individually or in bulk for project-ready installations.

APPLICATIONS

The 040-375/C6AJ/S CAT6A Shielded Junction Box is ideal for splicing, extending, or repairing shielded CAT6A runs in commercial and industrial environments:

• Mid-Span Cable Splicing and Repair
• Extending Existing Shielded CAT6A Runs
• Structured Cabling Installations in EMI-Heavy Environments
• Retrofit and Renovation Projects with Limited Cable Slack
• Low-Voltage Contractor Toolkits Requiring Shielded Terminations

WHY CHOOSE THE 040-375/C6AJ/S SHIELDED CAT6A JUNCTION BOX?

Whether you’re splicing a damaged run or extending shielded cable mid-installation, this junction box offers the flexibility and reliability you need:

1. Reliable Field Splicing: Nickel-plated shield and IDC terminals provide a secure, EMI-protected splice point without a full patch panel.
2. Flexible Wiring Options: T568A/T568B compatibility and broad AWG support simplify field termination.
3. Trusted Performance: Conforms to ANSI/TIA/EIA 568-C.2 and ISO/IEC 11801 category performance standards.
4. Built to Last: UL 94V-0 rated housing and corrosion-resistant nickel-plated components ensure durability in demanding environments.

GETTING IT INSTALLED

Once you’ve got the 040-375/C6AJ/S CAT6A Shielded Junction Box on hand, here’s how to make the splice count:

• Match your termination tool. Confirm you have a compatible 110 or Krone punch-down tool before you start—the right tool makes for a cleaner, more reliable IDC connection.
• Keep shield continuity in mind. Since this is a shielded splice box, make sure the metal cover and cable shielding maintain continuity through the connection to preserve end-to-end EMI protection.
• Double-check your wiring scheme. Whether you’re following T568A or T568B, stay consistent across the run so both ends match up correctly.
• Label as you go. In tight spaces or dense cable runs, labeling each splice point as you install it saves guesswork during future troubleshooting.
