Vimar ARKÉ RJ45 Netsafe Outlet, T568A/B Universal Wiring, 8 Contacts, Tool-Free Insulation-Piercing Terminals

Overview

The Vimar ARKÉ Series RJ45 Netsafe outlet is a modular RJ45 8(8) data outlet for structured wiring on board, with T568A/B universal wiring and insulation-piercing terminals that can be terminated without a special tool. It gives you a clean, fixed network connection point where a loose cable end is not the right finish, whether that is at a nav station, helm console, cabin workspace, or another interior service point.

This range covers Cat5e, Cat6, and Cat6A versions, with both UTP and FTP configurations depending on the variant. That matters when you are matching the outlet to the cable already specified for the boat, especially on refit work where shielding and link category need to stay consistent from one end of the run to the other.

Key features

• RJ45 8(8) outlet with Netsafe connector for fixed data terminations in ARKÉ installations
• T568A/B universal wiring supports standard network pinout layouts
• Available in Cat5e, Cat6, and Cat6A versions to match the network link being terminated
• UTP and FTP options let the outlet follow the shielding used in the cable run
• Insulation-piercing terminals allow termination without a special tool
• Suitable for round cable and offered in grey, white, metal, and antibacterial versions depending on configuration

Variants

This family varies by network category, shielding, and finish. Across the range you will find Cat5e, Cat6, and Cat6A versions, with UTP or FTP termination depending on the model. Finish options include grey, white, and metal, with antibacterial grey and white versions on selected UTP models.

The core outlet format stays consistent across the series: RJ45 Netsafe connection, T568A/B universal wiring, 8 contacts, and insulation-piercing termination. The main difference between variants is how each one lines up with the cable category, shielding plan, and finish required for the installation.

Installation and setup

For a clean network installation on a boat, the outlet should match the category and shielding of the cable being terminated. The tool-free insulation-piercing terminals help when space is limited behind a plate or panel, which is often the case in cabins, helm areas, and retrofit access points.

It is also worth checking the cable type before ordering. A shielded outlet should be used where the run is built around shielded cabling, while UTP versions suit unshielded links. Keeping the termination style and category aligned across the full run helps avoid unnecessary weak points at the final connection.

Use on board

This outlet suits boats that use structured Ethernet cabling for onboard internet access, local network hardware, or other RJ45-based equipment. It is a good fit where you want a finished wall or panel connection instead of leaving a patch lead loose at the end of the cable run.
