This design contains the exterior box and slip covers. To build the tap you will also need four CAT5e RJ45 keystone recepticles, some CAT5e cable, and a punch down tool. To support PoE devices, you will also need two 220pF capacitors (such as the Xicon 140-50P2-221K-RC.) The capacitors will enable power over ethernet while preventing gigabit communication. If the capacitors are not used then the box should only be wired using the green and orange pairs.
Note: The sheath of the CAT5e is not necessary however be sure to maintain the cable twists to reduce interference.
