Blank 2-Port Patch Panel ELN335001 for 19-inch Rack, 2 ports, rack-mount

Blank 2-Port Patch Panel ELN335001 for 19-inch Rack is a compact rack-mount module that provides two blank ports for organizing and reserving space in standard 19-inch network racks and cabinets. The panel accepts keystone inserts or RJ45 modules, allowing administrators to plan cabling layouts, hold spare ports for future expansion and maintain a neat front panel appearance in server rooms and network closets.

Advantages

The unit simplifies rack organization by offering two standardized cutouts compatible with modular inserts while preserving consistent rack aesthetics. Its metal construction provides a stable mounting point and helps protect unused openings from dust and accidental cable exposure. Installation into 19-inch racks is straightforward and allows flexible placement alongside active patch panels and other rack equipment.
