Each shielded patch panel includes 24 or 48 keystone jacks, cable management bar, cable ties, and mounting screws for easy rackmount installation in most standard networking enclosures or racks.

Rear cable management bar provides improved organization and strain relief to help maintain the reliability of both the jack and connection.

Professional-grade keystone connectors are rated to withstand at least 750 plug insertions, while exceeding TIA/EIA component, permanent link, and channel level performance specifications.

Specially engineered connector contact plate provides enhanced plug-to-jack connection integrity, while protecting against damage caused by the insertion of 4 or 6 position plugs.

Panel is constructed from high quality steel and stainless steel for maximum strength and long-lasting durability.

Each Cat 5e and Cat 6 patch panel comes pre-equipped with integrated replaceable labels for easy identification of each port, while the Cat 6a panel provides port labeling and clear port numbers.
