SCOPE
Content
This specification covers performance, tests and quality requirements for AMP NETCONNECT*,
Category 6 SL Jacks used to provide a universal connection interface between premise wiring of an office
and the user's network of communications equipment (for data and voice networking systems). These
assemblies are designed for installation into various outlet plates, surface mount boxes, panels and other
similar type fittings. Jacks incorporate IDC terminals for terminating unshielded twisted pair
communications cable. Jacks will accommodate:
