Patch panel Digitus CAT 5e, Class D

Where many patch panels settle for flimsy frames and vague tolerances, the DIGITUS DN-91524S earns its place in demanding network cabinets with a cold-rolled steel body, shielded 24-port architecture, and Krone-compatible LSA blocks that grip each conductor with 7.7 kg of retention force. This 1U panel turns cable chaos into a clean, repeatable termination point for Class D installations.

Highlights

• 24 shielded RJ45 ports in 1U, ready for 10-inch or 19-inch racks with included mounting hardware
• CAT 5e performance verified to ISO/IEC 11801 Class D, EN 50173-1, and TIA/EIA 568-C.2
• SPCC cold-rolled steel frame, 1.5 mm thick, with grey RAL 7035 powder coating
• Rear LSA (Krone) termination supports 22–26 AWG solid or stranded wire, colour-coded for T568A/B
• 3 µm gold plating on RJ45 contacts resists wear beyond 750 insertion cycles

In daily use

Terminating a 24-port run feels methodical rather than fiddly: each LSA block is labelled with both wiring schemes, the steel frame stays rigid while punching down, and the shielded housing keeps alien crosstalk out of dense cable bundles. The panel's 48.2 cm width fits standard 19-inch rails, while the included 10-inch adapters make it equally at home in compact wall-mount enclosures. Front port numbering and a writable label window speed up moves, adds, and changes.

Final note

For integrators who value a solid punch-down block and a frame that does not flex under load, the DN-91524S delivers CAT 5e shielding without the premium of CAT 6 — a practical choice for voice, PoE, and legacy data runs.
