You probably couldn't find anything made by "Siemons" because there is no such brand. It is either 'Siemon', the manufacturer of structured wiring hardware, or 'Siemens', the manufacturer of systems. There are way too many people in this industry who use the two interchangeably. They are two completely different entities offering completely different products!

It was a mistype on the forum. I did search for Siemon brand (using the part numbers from their website) and couldn't find anyone with it in stock locally, Graybar, or Amazon. Panduit 110 block seemed to work fine though.

I have used Cat5e and Cat6 punch down junction boxes before and found that they passed certification just fine. I had one job where I had to extend 40 cables and we bundled up the couplers and placed them in the ceiling, neatly.

Siemon seems like it's a special order all the time around here. I don't see a difference using Panduit or a Leviton 110 instead. Looks good.
