Are these backwards-compatible with older 100Mbps network equipment?

Yes. Older 10/100Mbps Ethernet equipment is backward compatible with these outlets.

The connected devices negotiate a speed they both support, so an older printer or television does not require a different wall module simply because it runs at 100Mbps.

Are these RJ45 data modules shielded? Can I use this module for PoE, PoE+ or PoE++? Can I get 1Gbps through the Cat5e version? Will the Cat6 outlet run at Gigabit speed?
