Patch Panel Digitus CAT 6A 12-Port 1HE 10" Black

The CAT 6A 12-port patch panel provides future-oriented standards and high-end quality for structured networks. Housed in a robust metal enclosure with full shielding and 360° shield contacts, it is designed for reliable cable consolidation and stable signal transmission in 10" cabinet installations. The panel supports PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at/af) and is built from 1.5 mm galvanic cold-rolled steel for durable mounting and long-term use.

Advantages

The fully shielded metal housing and shield contacts ensure electromagnetic protection and minimal signal loss. IDC strips simplify cable termination while a central grounding connector enables secure grounding. The construction delivers high dielectric strength (up to 1500 VDC contact/ground) and mechanical stability for professional network installations.

Key specifications

• Category: CAT 6A
• Ports: 12
• Housing: metal, 1.5 mm galvanic cold-rolled steel
• Shielding: full shielding with 360° shield contacts
• Connector type: shielded RJ45 sockets
• Cable termination: IDC strips
• Grounding: central grounding connector
• PoE support: IEEE 802.3at/af (PoE+)

How to use

Install the patch panel into a 10" cabinet and secure it to the rack. Terminate network cables using the IDC strips according to the wiring standard in use, then connect shielded RJ45 plugs to the panel sockets. Attach the central grounding connector to the building ground to ensure full shielding continuity. Verify connections and, if using PoE+, confirm compatible devices and power sourcing equipment.

Recommendations

Use shielded network cables and maintain proper grounding to preserve electromagnetic shielding and prevent signal degradation. For best results in high-density or PoE+ environments, follow standard installation practices and test each link after termination.
