What is the function of keystone jack?

A keystone jack is a female connector used in data communications. It serves as a receptacle for a matching RJ45 plug, allowing Ethernet cables to be connected to patch panels, wall plates, and other networking equipment.

Are there different types of keystone jacks?

Yes, there are different types of keystone jacks based on the network cable specifications they support, including:

  • Cat5e Keystone Jacks: Rated for up to 1 Gbps, suitable for home and small business networks.
  • Cat6 Keystone Jacks: Rated for up to 10 Gbps, ideal for high-speed networks in large businesses or data centers.
  • Cat6a Keystone Jacks: Support data rates up to 10 Gbps over longer distances.
  • Cat7 and Cat8 Keystone Jacks: Support even higher data rates and frequencies.

What are the four (4) types of fiber optic connectors?

The common types of fiber optic connectors are:

  • LC: Compact size, high performance, and ease of use, making it a popular choice.
  • SC: Durable and easy to use, featuring a push-pull latching system.
  • MTP/MPO: Used for high-density applications, supporting multiple fibers in a single connector.
  • ST: Known for its bayonet-style locking mechanism, suitable for high-vibration environments.

What is the most commonly used fiber optic connector?

The LC connector is the most commonly used fiber optic connector today, particularly for networking and audio/video applications, due to its compact size, high performance, and ease of use.

How do I identify a fiber optic connector?

Fiber optic connectors can be identified by their distinct shapes and features:

  • SC connectors have a square shape.
  • FC connectors have a threaded barrel design.
  • ST connectors have a bayonet-style locking mechanism.
  • LC connectors have a small, rectangular form factor.

Additionally, different connector types may have different color coding, such as blue for single-mode UPC connectors and green for single-mode APC connectors.
