Patchpanel Extralink 24-port U/UTP (UTP) modular, 1U, black, 482.6 mm width

Extralink 24-port U/UTP modular patch panel is a 1U rack-mounted module designed to terminate and organize horizontal UTP cabling in small and medium structured networks. The panel accommodates 24 modular keystone jacks in a compact 482.6 mm width housing with a black finish, allowing flexible configuration of RJ45 ports and simple integration into a standard 19" rack. Its modular design permits installation of keystones of different categories to match the required connection standard and maintain proper signal performance.

Advantages

The modular construction lets you equip the panel with the exact keystone jacks needed, simplifying upgrades and mixed-category installations without replacing the whole panel. Installation uses standard 19" rack screws and fits a 1U space, saving rack depth while keeping a neat front distribution point. The black powder-coated housing provides mechanical protection and a uniform appearance in rack installations. Clear port arrangement supports tidy cable routing and labeling, improving maintainability and reducing downtime during reconfiguration.

Suitable for

• Structured cabling in small and medium office or server-room networks
• Terminating horizontal UTP cables to create a centralized distribution point
• Mixed-category keystone deployments where different RJ45 jack types are required
• Rack-mounted patching and consolidation in 19" cabinets occupying 1U

Key specifications

• Form factor: 1U, 19" rack-mount compatible
• Ports: 24 modular keystone positions for U/UTP (UTP) connections
• Width: 482.6 mm
• Color: Black finish
• Compatibility: Designed for use with standard RJ45 keystone jacks and patchcords

How to use

Mount the patch panel into a 19" rack occupying one U using standard rack screws. Install appropriate keystone RJ45 jacks into the modular openings according to the desired category (for example Cat5e, Cat6), then terminate horizontal UTP cables at the back side of each keystone following the jack manufacturer's wiring scheme. Connect active devices to the front RJ45 ports using category-matched patchcords, and label ports clearly to reflect port-to-device assignments. Ensure cable management accessories or vertical managers are used to avoid excessive bend and strain on terminated cables.

Usage recommendations

Choose keystone jacks and patchcords of the same category to preserve link performance; keep cable bend radius within manufacturer limits and secure cables with tie points in the rack to maintain reliable connections.
