ACT PP1033 24 Port Keystone Jack 45 Degrees Patch Panel Without Connectors 1U Black SPCC

The ACT PP1033 24 Port Keystone Jack 45 Degrees Patch Panel Without Connectors is a professional networking component designed for efficient and organized cable management in server rooms and rack installations. Built with a 1U rack capacity, this unshielded and shielded keystone jack compatible patch panel features an angled 45-degree port orientation that simplifies cable routing and reduces strain on connected cables. Constructed from durable black SPCC material, it provides a reliable foundation for network infrastructures while maintaining a clean and orderly appearance within standard 19-inch racks.

Advantages

The angled 45-degree port design significantly improves cable management by directing cables naturally towards the side or rear of the rack, minimizing bend radius issues and simplifying maintenance tasks. Its robust SPCC construction ensures long-term durability and structural integrity in demanding network environments. The inclusion of a dedicated cable management bar helps secure cables properly, reducing clutter and preventing accidental disconnections. Furthermore, the blank design offers flexibility, allowing network technicians to install specific keystone jacks according to exact project requirements.

Suitable for

• Organizing network cables in server rooms and data centers
• Enterprise office local area network installations
• Structured cabling systems requiring 1U rack space
• Deployments utilizing keystone jacks from the TD5xxx and TD6xxx ranges

When it may not be suitable

This patch panel is delivered without connectors, meaning it may not be suitable for users looking for a fully pre-terminated plug-and-play solution without the need for separate keystone jack purchases and manual assembly. Additionally, installations that exceed a density of 24 ports within a single 1U space will require supplementary hardware.

Finally, route the connected cables neatly along the integrated cable management bar and secure them with zip ties or velcro straps to maintain a clean and tension-free installation.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your rack is a standard 19-inch width with available 1U vertical space
• Ensure you have compatible keystone jacks, as connectors are not included in the package
• Assess your cable management requirements and bundle thickness to utilize the integrated support bar effectively

Always ensure that network cables are properly labeled and securely fastened to the cable management bar to prevent strain on the keystone jacks and maintain optimal network performance over time.
