TRENDnet Cat6 Keystone Jack 50-Pack Bundle – 90° Tool-Less RJ45 Jacks (TC-K50C6)

Discover a reliable, high-performance solution for expanding your network with TRENDnet's Cat6 Keystone Jack 50-Pack Bundle. These tool-less, 90° angled jacks are engineered for fast, secure terminations on Cat5, Cat5e, and Cat6 cabling, making them ideal for upgrading gigabit networks and enabling 10G-ready infrastructure across copper runs. Compatible with TRENDnet's TC-KP24 or TC-KP48 patch panels (sold separately), they feature color-coded labeling for T568B wiring and are NDAA/TAA compliant, ensuring compliant deployments in the U.S. and Canada. Whether you're outfitting a home office, small business, or enterprise data closet, this 50-pack provides consistent performance, easy installation, and scalable cable management for clean, professional networks.

• High-performance Cat6 connectivity with backward compatibility - These keystone jacks deliver reliable data transmission for Gigabit Ethernet and 10G-ready copper networks, while remaining compatible with Cat5 and Cat5e cabling. The 90° angle termination design reduces cable strain and neatly fits into racks, patch panels, and wall plates, ensuring stable, long-lasting connections in both home and business environments. Color-coded labeling supports quick identification and reduces wiring errors, keeping installations clean and efficient from the first run to the final test.
• Tool-less, quick-install design - No specialized crimping tools required. The tool-less construction lets technicians press conductors into the jack’s termination slots and secure them with built-in clips. This speeds up installations in dense server rooms, data closets, or wall-mounted panels, while preserving signal integrity. The simplified termination process minimizes downtime during upgrades and new builds, enabling faster network rollouts without sacrificing performance or reliability.
• Backward-compatible with Cat5 and Cat5e - Built for Cat6 performance, these jacks maintain compatibility with Cat5 and Cat5e cabling, providing flexibility for mixed-network environments and phased upgrades. This compatibility makes it easier to transition from older infrastructure to Category 6, delivering improved speeds and reliability without replacing every component at once.
• Color-coded labeling for T568B wiring - Each jack features clear, color-coded labeling aligned with the T568B standard, reducing the risk of miswiring and enabling faster terminations. The consistent labeling works seamlessly with compatible patch panels like TC-KP24 or TC-KP48, helping technicians deliver neat, standardized installations that are easy to troubleshoot and maintain over time.
• NDAA/TAA compliant for U.S. and Canada deployments - TRENDnet’s Cat6 Keystone Jacks meet NDAA and TAA requirements, ensuring procurement compliance for government, education, and enterprise environments in the United States and Canada. This compliance provides peace of mind in mixed-vendor deployments while delivering dependable Cat6 performance across your network.

How to install TRENDnet Cat6 Keystone Jack

• Prepare the installation surface and patch hardware: Confirm you have a compatible TRENDnet patch panel (TC-KP24 or TC-KP48) and a clean workspace. Ensure the network equipment is powered down as needed and labeling is ready for an orderly run.
• Strip and prep the cable: Prepare Cat5, Cat5e, or Cat6 cable by removing the outer jacket to expose the twisted pairs, while maintaining enough twist near the termination to preserve signal integrity. Avoid nicking or damaging conductors, and trim any frayed fibers neatly.
• Terminate with a tool-less keystone jack: Following the T568B color code, insert each conductor into the corresponding termination slot on the 90° angled keystone jack. The tool-less design uses integrated clips to secure conductors without crimping, so push firmly until you hear or feel the connector seat properly.
• Seat into the patch panel or wall plate: Once terminated, snap the keystone jack into the patch panel (TC-KP24/TC-KP48) or wall plate ensuring a secure, flush fit. Check alignment and ensure there are no loose jacks that could cause intermittent disconnects.
• Test and organize: Use a cable tester to verify continuity and correct pair alignment. Label each run to keep future changes simple and to assist with troubleshooting. Route cables neatly using proper cable management practices to maintain airflow and accessibility.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Are these jacks compatible with Cat6a cabling?

A: They are designed for Cat5, Cat5e, and Cat6 cabling. Cat6a performance considerations are not specified for these jacks, so for Cat6a deployments you may want to verify compatibility with TRENDnet’s latest keystone solutions or use Cat6a-specific components where required.

Q: Do I need tools to install these jacks?

A: No tools are required. The tool-less design allows you to terminate conductors directly into the jack without crimping, speeding up installations while maintaining secure connections.

Q: Will these jacks fit standard keystone patch panels?

A: Yes. The jacks are intended for use with standard keystone patch panels, including TRENDnet’s TC-KP24 and TC-KP48 series, which are sold separately. This makes it easy to build or expand modular networks with consistent hardware.

Q: Are they NDAA/TAA compliant?

A: Yes. The TRENDnet Cat6 Keystone Jacks in this bundle comply with NDAA and TAA requirements, suitable for government, education, and enterprise deployments in the U.S. and Canada.

Q: What speeds do these jacks support?
