Eaton 5521-5ELA – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What cable and termination does this Eaton modular strap take?
It accepts 110 style, type F cable, wire type 110 style, and terminates with a screw connector. That makes it a screw-terminated part rather than a punch-only one, so an installer isn't chasing a separate punchdown tool for the connection type listed here.
2) Will the light almond color match the other devices in my building?
The Eaton 5521-5ELA comes in light almond only, model 55215ELA. If your existing openings are white or ivory, this won't blend, so match the plate and adjacent devices to light almond or pick a different color device. Property managers standardizing a fleet of units should confirm the existing wallplate color first.
3) Is the Pass & Seymour 326W mounting strap a substitute for the Eaton 5521-5ELA modular insert?
They are different parts despite both being called mounting straps. The Eaton 5521-5ELA is a 1-port modular mounting strap insert in decorator style, flush mount modular design, that accepts 110 style type F cable with screw connectors for communications terminations. The Pass & Seymour 326W is a box-mounted wiring device mounting strap in white, used to support a wiring device in the box rather than to terminate low-voltage communications cable. If the job is a voice or data outlet behind a decorator wallplate, the Eaton part is the one that lands the jack; if the job is mounting a device to the box, the 326W is the strap for that.
4) Is the Eaton 5521-5ELA UL Listed and RoHS compliant?
Both. The strap insert carries a UL Listing and is RoHS compliant, which is what most institutional and government specs ask for on wiring devices.
5) What are the electrical ratings on this Eaton mounting strap insert?
Single-pole, three-way, rated 15A at 120/277V. Operating temperature range is 0 to 40 degrees C, so it suits conditioned interior spaces, not unheated exterior enclosures or high-heat mechanical rooms.
6) How is this different from a Pass & Seymour 326W mounting strap?
Two different jobs. The Eaton 5521-5ELA is a 1-port modular insert in decorator style, light almond, for communications terminations. The Pass & Seymour 326W is a box-mounted wiring device mounting strap in white, a bracket for carrying a device rather than a modular communications port. If you need the metal strap that mounts a device to the box, the 326W is the part; if you need the decorator style port insert itself, take the Eaton.
7) What is this Eaton insert made of, and will it hold up in a high-traffic commercial space?
It's molded from thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), and it's specified for commercial as well as residential communications use. Because it's a flush mounted insert, the wallplate takes most of the abuse rather than the strap itself.
