Vimar EIKON RJ45 Netsafe Outlet, T568A/B, Insulation-Piercing Terminals

Overview

The Vimar EIKON Series is an RJ45 Netsafe outlet module for finishing a structured data run on board with a clean, plate-mounted connection point. It is a bus (jack) style RJ45 8(8) outlet with T568A/B universal wiring, offered in Cat5e, Cat6, and Cat6A versions, with both unshielded (UTP) and shielded (FTP) options.

These outlets are commonly used at helm stations, nav tables, entertainment areas, and equipment lockers where you want a fixed, strain-managed RJ45 point instead of a loose coupler. Depending on the variant, termination is either a tool-free insulation-piercing style (no special tool) or a 110-type insulation-piercing terminal that uses a special tool. Cable support and conductor range vary by connector type, covering common network conductors in the AWG 22 to 26 range.

Key features

• Modular EIKON-format device for integrating into compatible Vimar EIKON plates and frames.
• RJ45 8(8) outlet with T568A/B universal wiring for structured cabling terminations.
• Cat5e, Cat6, and Cat6A variants to match the category of your installed cabling and patch leads.
• UTP (unshielded) and FTP (shielded) connector choices to suit unshielded runs or shielded installations where you want screen continuity.
• Two termination styles by variant: tool-free insulation-piercing (no special tool) or 110-type insulation-piercing terminals (special tool required).
• Suitable for round network cable; conductor support varies by version across the AWG 22 to 26 range.

Variants

This outlet is offered in multiple combinations of finish, connector style, and RJ45 category. Finishes include Grey, White, and Silver, and the connector can be UTP or FTP depending on whether the run is unshielded or uses a cable screen.

Variants also differ by termination type. Some use tool-free insulation-piercing terminals (listed as UTP or FTP), while others use 110-type insulation-piercing terminals (listed as UTP110 or FTP110) that require the appropriate termination tool. The RJ45 type indicates Cat5e, Cat6, or Cat6A to align with the category of the cabling system you are building or servicing.

Installation and setup

Terminate the cable using the T568A or T568B color code that matches the rest of your network and keep the conductor twists as close to the termination as possible. For shielded FTP versions, carry the cable screen through the termination as intended for the shielding to be meaningful across the run.

In a boat, plan for vibration and service access. Leave a sensible service loop behind the plate, avoid tight bends at the back of the module, and support the cable so the connector is not taking the load when the panel is opened or the boat is underway.

Compatibility and fit

This is a Vimar EIKON Netsafe structured cabling device and is meant to be installed as part of an EIKON modular plate assembly. Before ordering, confirm your existing series and plate layout so the module, support frame, and cover plate all match the same EIKON format and finish family.

Use cases on board

This type of outlet makes sense on boats that are building out an onboard IP network, adding fixed data points for electronics, or cleaning up a refit where patch leads and couplers have become hard to manage. It also fits well when you want consistent, labeled terminations at multiple stations for troubleshooting and future expansion.

Many products sold by Apollo Lighting include a manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials or workmanship. Warranty terms vary by brand, product category, and model, so eligibility, coverage duration, exclusions, and available remedies are determined by the applicable manufacturer. We recommend reviewing the warranty information provided with your product before installation or use, especially for marine electronics, navigation equipment, lighting, electrical systems, pumps, safety equipment, and other specialized marine products.

If you need warranty service, the claim must follow the process established by the manufacturer, authorized service center, or designated warranty provider. You may be asked for proof of purchase, a serial number, product registration, photos, maintenance or installation records, or other documentation. Apollo Lighting does not determine or modify a manufacturer's warranty coverage or final claim decision, but we are happy to help provide purchase information and direct you to the appropriate manufacturer or warranty resource.

Keep your receipt, product documentation, serial number information, and original packaging when practical. Damage caused by normal wear, misuse, improper installation, insufficient maintenance, corrosion, impact, unauthorized modifications, electrical issues, or operation outside the manufacturer's specifications may not be covered. Warranty claims are separate from standard returns, so a product that has been installed, used, or exposed to marine conditions may no longer qualify for return while still remaining eligible for evaluation under the manufacturer's applicable warranty.
