Corrected Keystone Jack Receptacle (component) and Negative model
thingiverse
What's here: This is a corrected keystone jack "modular part" that could be incorporated into designs. I have now used it for several projects (patch panel, etc) and so far it has been perfect. There is a: - "Positive" model that can be incorporated as part of panels - "Negative" model that can be removed from existing solids to create a keystone "orifice" Where's it from: The original internal dimensions/model of this remix came from the Wally Project: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:47956 What was the problem: I printed out a patch panel (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4612817) that listed jsudask's component (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6647) as the original keystone jack design. After printing, none of my keystone jacks would rotate into position correctly and forcing them cracked the model. Both the face-hole was a little too small and the internal space was blocking insertion. Even the original author of the patch panel noted that it was VERY hard to insert the jacks. Looking back on the original part by jsadusk, I saw others also found it hard/impossible to put their keystone jacks into the receptacle. Why was it a problem? Keystone jacks are "eased" under the outer face, upper-inner-lower lip. This model has that lip as a 45 angle which allows the jack to rotate into position correctly after insertion. The original model obstructed that rotation and prevented it from clicking into position. So, I fixed it by copying another model (from the Wally project) and truncating it to just the keystone jack. This fits all my keystone jacks without a problem and without undue force or "dremeling/sanding/cutting".
