MC Modul or Keystone
The difference between the two installation cut-outs
Our modules are available with different installation cut-outs (MC Modul and Keystone).
In different applications (such as wall outlets, patch panels, module frames, DIN rail housing REGplus, underfloor units, etc.), it is essential that the installation cut-out for the application is compatible with the installation cut-out for the module. Therefore, when choosing a module, it is important to consider its individual installation cut-out. The product specification provides all of the information you need to do so.

MC Modul installation cut-out – benefits at a glance
-
the shape and associated installation type allow the module to be installed and removed securely and easily in applications (such as wall outlets, patch panels, ...)
-
applications can be manufactured from a wide range of different materials (plastic, stainless steel ...)
-
the pre-tensioned bracket made of highly conductive material runs through the entire module without any material changes
-
a consistently stable shielded connection is ensured for years, with minimal contact resistance from the connected installation cable to the inserted RJ45 patch cord
-
patch panels based on the MC Modul installation cut-out also ensure consistently low contact resistances, from the cable shielding to the module frame
