Ethernet plug symbol

[winterdd]

Doing an office renovation and cannot for the life of me find an electrical symbol for an ethernet outlet. Do we have anything in CA? I see some in Sketchup 3D warehouse but the models aren't that good and come in distorted and out of shape OR multiple ones at once. Confused why this isn't a standard electrical item in CA.

Hello @winterdd,

 

Various networking ports can be found in the Core Catalogs by going to Core Catalogs> Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing> Electrical> Jacks> Networking.

 

I hope this helps!

Try searching for "Cat5"

Is that the same? I mean I guess I could rename the symbol. Thanks.

Yes, CAT 5 just refers to the type of Ethernet cable, Category 5.

RJ45 is the proper designation for the actual jack.
