Summary:A communication outlet for use with a communication plug. The outlet includes a shutter door biased by at least one biasing member toward a closed position in which the shutter door substantially obstructs the opening. Insertion of the communication plug into the opening transitions the shutter door from the closed position to an open position. Optionally, the outlet includes a shutter lock member adjacent the shutter door. The shutter lock member prevents the shutter door from transitioning from the closed position to the open position when the shutter lock member is in a locked position. The shutter lock member is transitionable from the locked position to an unlocked position by the insertion of the communication plug into the opening. Optionally, the outlet includes a wire manager configured to position a plurality of wires to engage a plurality of wire contacts inside the outlet.
