        Clipsal by Schneider Electric | RJ45 Socket Category 6 Mechanism | Translucent

        The Clipsal Iconic 40RJ45SMA6C-TN is a Category 6 RJ45 modular socket mechanism, rated for unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable and 8-pin RJ45 connectivity. Designed for horizontal or vertical mounting within the Clipsal Iconic wall plate range, the 40RJ45SMA6C-TN features punch-down termination technology and is compatible with standard Iconic backing plates and skins. It complies with Cat 6 networking standards and is part of the 40 series modular mechanisms range.

        Modern residential and commercial installations increasingly demand fast ethernet connectivity alongside power distribution. Home networks now run simultaneously with mains circuits, and wall points must consolidate both. The 40RJ45SMA6C-TN addresses this by offering a dedicated data socket mechanism that fits seamlessly into the Clipsal Iconic modular ecosystem, allowing electricians to provision ethernet at the same location as power outlets and switches without separate cable pathways. The translucent finish blends with neutral decor, and full interchangeability across the Iconic range means one backing plate design supports dozens of finish options and plate types.

        Licensed electricians value the 40RJ45SMA6C-TN for its quick installation using punchdown technology. No crimpers and no tools beyond a punchdown block are needed. The mechanism fits all Iconic wall plates, making it a natural addition to jobs where customers are already specifying Clipsal switches and power points. The translucent moulding is easy to identify on the job, and the modular design saves stock space since one backing assembly handles both data and power switching variants across all Iconic finishes.

        Features

        • Category 6 connectivity — supports unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) data cable and delivers the full Cat 6 performance envelope for residential and light commercial ethernet networks.
        • 8-pin RJ45 configuration — full-pin termination for Cat 6 capacity; also compatible with RJ11 and lower-pin-count connectors through the same contact set.
        • Punchdown termination method — cable lands directly onto spring-loaded contact strips, no crimping or soldering needed, reducing fit-off time on site.
        • Clipsal Iconic range compatibility — the 40RJ45SMA6C-TN uses the standard Iconic backing plate and mechanism aperture, so it works with every Iconic single, double, and quad outlet body, plus all switch and dimmer variants.
        • Translucent moulding — provides visual contrast on the jobsite and offers a modern, neutral finish that blends with architectural colour schemes.
        • Horizontal or vertical installation — the RJ45 socket accepts cable from either end, and the mechanism orientation is not constrained by the backing plate.
        • Clear cable-securing clip — built-in strain relief holds the ethernet cable during fit-off and reduces stress on the internal contacts.
        • Modular design — standardises installation across multiple SKU variants; one backing plate supports power outlets, switches, data sockets, and audio connectors without tooling changes.
        • Suitable for flush or architectural mounting — fits standard 16mm or 20mm wall boxes without modification, and is compatible with architectural surface-mount frames for rennovation projects.
        • Complies with Cat 6 standards — supports bandwidth up to 250 MHz and is listed for both residential and commercial applications where Cat 6 certification is required.

        Where to use

        • Home networks and home offices — installing ethernet to study desks, media cabinets, or gaming setups alongside existing power circuits, using the 40RJ45SMA6C-TN in the same wall plate as power outlets.
        • New-build and renovation networks — the Clipsal Iconic range is common in modern builds; adding Cat 6 sockets during installation ensures future-ready network coverage without exposed cables or retrofit disruption.
        • Kitchen and living area entertainment — wall-mounted streaming devices, smart TVs, and soundbars often require both power and ethernet; the 40RJ45SMA6C-TN centralises both at one point.
        • Rental properties and multi-unit buildings — providing neutral, interchangeable data sockets across multiple finishes ensures network infrastructure doesn't require rework when tenancy or ownership changes.
        • Home automation and smart-home hubs — centralised ethernet distribution supports wired connections to bridge WiFi dead zones and hardwire control hubs to internet without relying on wireless mesh systems.
        • Domestic and light-commercial installations — the modular design and standard backing plate reduce learning curve when installers transition between similar Iconic mechanisms (switches, GPOs, data sockets).

        The 40RJ45SMA6C-TN is suitable for interior wall mounting only and is not rated for external, damp-exposed, or outdoor locations. Do not install in bathrooms, laundries, or areas subject to splash, condensation, or rain exposure. For wet-area data connectivity, specialist IP-rated enclosures are required.

        "Absolutely love these Clipsal products – so easy to use and everything is interchangeable." — Sarah

        "Good Cat6 jack for use with the Iconic Range." — Jason

        (40RJ45SMA6C-TN)

        No special tools are required beyond a standard punchdown block. The RJ45 contacts land directly onto spring-loaded terminals, so no crimping, soldering, or cable preparation is needed. A flat-head screwdriver may help guide cable into the contact slots.

        Yes. The 40RJ45SMA6C-TN uses the same backing plate as all Clipsal Iconic single, double, quad power points and light switches. You can install it alongside any Iconic outlet, switch, or dimmer variant in the same wall frame or use it as a standalone mechanism in a standard backing plat

        Yes. The 8-pin contact configuration accommodates RJ45 (8-pin Cat 6), RJ11 (4-pin telephone), and other modular connectors. The same mechanism supports both data and voice applications on a single backing assembly.

        The 40RJ45SMA6C-TN is Category 6, which supports higher bandwidth (up to 250 MHz) than Cat 5e (100 MHz). Cat 6 is suitable for future-proofing modern homes, gaming rigs, and commercial networks. The translucent finish of the -TN variant distinguishes it from other 40 series mechanisms.
