Study Notes
Modular Box (Network)
- A surface-mounted box used in commercial and industrial buildings
- Used to cleanly attach network cables
- Commonly used in structured networks
- Boxes typically house network keystone modules and ports for connecting to network cables
- Wall plates can also be used in the same manner, as seen with keystone wall plates
- Keystone wall plates provide a clean way to mount network cables to a modular box, or wall
- Keystone wall plates are also sometimes called face plates
- Network keystone modules are peripherals that mount to a wall plate to connect to a network jack
- The modules are often color-coded for T568A and T568B wiring schemes (standard cable configurations for network cables)
- Connections are commonly made using RJ45 connectors (female)
- Diagrams of modular box configurations show connections between a patch cable, the modular box, and wall jacks
- Configurations may involve a patch cable connected to a modular panel at the back of the box, and then connected to wall jacks on the front of the box
