ZORA Cat 5e Shielded Module Description

ZORA Cat 5e shielded modules are used in data network communications, telecommunication rooms, with information outlet panels or desktop boxes, etc. in the work area.

Standards Compliance

• ANSI/TIA 568.2-D

• ISO/IEC 11801

ZORA Cat 5e shielded module Features

1Designed according to international standards ISO/IEC11801, ANSI/TIA-568-2.D, with excellent performance and reliability;

2The 8 gold needles inside the module are gold-plated on the surface as a whole to ensure that the minimum contact resistance and the longest service life are achieved;

3The use of brass nickel-plated shell to achieve a 360-degree all-round shielding, to ensure the safety of information transmission and performance;

4Transmission bandwidth 100MHz;

5Special internal and external design, internal gold needle cross structure makes the elasticity is very good, even if the user is frequently connected and plugged in, but also can maintain good contact.

Technical Specifications

1.What is the ZORA Cat5e Shielded Module?

The ZORA Cat5e Shielded Module is an RJ45 interface module with metal shielding (F/UTP or S/FTP), compliant with Cat5e (TIA/EIA-568-B.2) standards. It minimizes electromagnetic interference (EMI) and supports Gigabit Ethernet (1Gbps), ideal for high-noise environments like industrial or medical facilities.

2.What are the key applications?

Industrial Control: Networking near motors and inverters.

Medical Systems: Data transmission in MRI rooms and operating theaters.

Server Rooms: Short-distance links in shielded patch panels.

Surveillance: IP cameras in high-EMI zones.

3.What are the technical specifications?

Shielding: F/UTP or S/FTP.

Bandwidth: 100MHz (supports 1Gbps up to 100 meters).

Port Type: RJ45 (8P8C).

Cable Compatibility: 24AWG .

Grounding: Requires grounding via patch panel or outlet.

4.How does it differ from unshielded modules?

5.Installation steps and precautions?

Steps:

•    Strip cable shield and fix it to the module’s metal shell.

•    Terminate wires per T568A/B standards.

•    Snap the module into a panel and tighten ground screws.

Precautions:

•    Incomplete grounding may cause shield failure or noise.

•    Avoid mixing with unshielded cables in the same link.

6.Is it PoE compatible?

Yes! Supports 802.3af/at PoE (up to 30W) with Cat5e or higher-grade shielded cables.

7.How to verify shielding performance?

Continuity Test: Use a multimeter to check shield-ground continuity.

Certification: Validate ANEXT with cable testers (e.g., Fluke DSX).
