METZ CONNECT BTR UAE 25x8(8) patch panel schermato Cat.6, 25 porte, 1U, grigio chiaro 130887-E

Managing high-density network connections in a 19-inch rack often means choosing between port count, performance, and ease of installation. The METZ CONNECT BTR UAE 25x8(8) patch panel solves this by packing 25 shielded RJ45 ports into a single rack unit, delivering Cat.6 performance with tool-free module installation and robust shielding for demanding environments.

Who is it for

This patch panel is built for network administrators, data center technicians, and IT installers who need a reliable, high-density termination point for shielded cabling. It suits enterprise networks, industrial facilities, and any infrastructure where electromagnetic interference is a concern and uptime is critical.

Main features

• 25 shielded RJ45 ports in a compact 1U 19-inch rack-mount form factor
• Cat.6 performance compliant with ISO/IEC 11801, EN 50173, and TIA/EIA-568-C.2
• Tool-free module installation from the front for quick setup and maintenance
• LSA-Plus (IDC) termination supports solid (AWG 24/1–22/1) and stranded (AWG 26/7–22/7) conductors
• Central grounding bolt ensures effective earthing for shielded installations
• Gold-plated contacts rated for over 750 mating cycles
• Supports Power over Ethernet (PoE, PoE+, and 4PPoE per IEEE 802.3af/at/bt) for powering devices directly through the panel
• Robust sheet steel housing with light grey (RAL 7035) front panel for durability and a professional appearance
• Wide operating temperature range from -40°C to +70°C for harsh environments

Tips

For best performance, use shielded Cat.6 or higher cabling and ensure proper grounding via the central bolt. When terminating, follow the color-coded LSA-Plus instructions to maintain pair twists as close to the IDC as possible. The tool-free module design allows for quick swaps without removing the panel from the rack, reducing downtime during moves, adds, and changes.
