Patch panel VALUE Cat.6/Class E 24 porte UTP grigio chiaro

The VALUE Cat.6/Class E 19" Patch Panel 24 Ports UTP in light grey is a rack-mountable panel designed to terminate and organize UTP network cabling. It provides 24 RJ45 ports arranged across a standard 19-inch width, enabling orderly distribution of Ethernet runs in wiring closets, server rooms, or equipment racks. Built to Cat6/Class E performance guidelines, the panel supports high-speed data transmission and structured-cabling practices for Ethernet networks.

Advantages

This patch panel centralizes cable management and reduces clutter by consolidating multiple UTP connections into a single, accessible panel. Its Cat.6/Class E compliance helps maintain signal integrity and bandwidth for gigabit Ethernet and suitable higher-frequency applications. The light grey finish offers a neutral appearance that integrates with a variety of rack and room environments, while the metal housing provides a stable, durable mounting point for frequent plug/unplug cycles.

How to use

Mount the patch panel in a standard 19-inch rack or cabinet and secure it at the recommended rack unit. Terminate each network cable to the corresponding port using the T568A or T568B wiring scheme, following color-code guidance for consistent pair alignment. Use a punch-down tool or appropriate termination tool to ensure solid contact at the IDC/keystone points. Label ports as required for identification and connect patch cords from the panel to switches or other active equipment to complete network links.

Recommendations

Maintain bend radius and avoid excessive tension on UTP cables when routing to the patch panel. Keep patch cords short and organized with horizontal managers to preserve signal quality. For optimal performance, pair this Cat.6/Class E panel with Cat6-rated patch cords and follow industry standards for grounding and rack airflow management.
