Hi.
Can anyone let me know if Lucent/ Avaya Cat5e and Cat3 Jacks /keystone/ modules fit into a standard wall plate or if they require a specialized wall plates from lucent/Avaya.
I think I was told a while back that for Leviton requires special leviton plates. So I was curious if the Lucent/ Avaya had the same issues.
I would sure appreciate you help on this.
Thanks again!

the last lucent I used only worked on their plates , leviton will work with most plates (leviton / ICC / allentel, ETC )

I have found most keystone surface mounts are particular to their own brand mounts.

Lucent/Avaya's are unique - nothing else fits them, and they don't fit anything else.
To release the jack from the faceplate, remove the plastic cap from the punchdown, it will have to tabs sticking out. Push those tabs into the small holes on either side of the jack to release the locking tabs, then pull the jack out of the faceplate.

I learned the lucent lesson the hard way , doing a job that specked a half a dozen drops with lucent jacks (Sherwin Williams store all diffrent colors ) so I dropped by alltel picked up the jacks (hey I had plenty of faceplate's ), drove 40 miles to the josite ,pulled my cable went ot put the jacks on  40 miles back for the right faceplate's didn't make much on that job :rolleyes:

Actually, Suttle's STAR series of modules & face plates are compatible with Avaya/Lucent hardware.

I think its always best to use the same brand of faceplate and jacks together. After all, they were made for each other.
