Lanberg PPRF-R624-B 24-Port 1U 19-inch F-Type Coaxial Patch Panel

The Lanberg PPRF-R624-B is a professional-grade 24-port 1U 19-inch rack-mount patch panel specifically engineered for efficient coaxial cable management. Designed to integrate seamlessly into standard server cabinets, this unit features high-quality F-type female-to-female barrel connectors, providing a stable and organized interface for distributing satellite, cable television, or broadband signals. Its durable metal construction ensures long-term reliability and maintains signal integrity in demanding telecommunications and networking environments.

Advantages

This patch panel offers a streamlined approach to organizing complex coaxial cabling systems, significantly reducing clutter within server racks. By utilizing standardized F-type connectors, it allows for quick and secure connections without the need for specialized tools or complex terminations. The robust metal chassis provides excellent shielding and physical protection for the connections, ensuring that signal quality remains consistent even in high-density installations. Its 1U form factor optimizes vertical rack space, making it an ideal choice for professional setups where space efficiency is critical.

Suitable for

• Satellite television signal distribution
• Cable television (CATV) network management
• Broadband coaxial infrastructure
• Professional server room and data center cable organization

When it may not be suitable

This device is not designed for fiber optic or twisted-pair Ethernet cabling systems and will not function with those media types. It is also unsuitable for outdoor environments unless housed within a weather-protected, climate-controlled enclosure.

Key specifications

• Form factor: 1U rack-mount
• Width: 19 inches
• Port count: 24 ports
• Connector type: F-type female-to-female barrel
• Material: Durable metal construction
• Color: Black

How to use

Installation begins by mounting the panel into the 19-inch rack rails using standard rack screws. Once secured, connect your incoming coaxial cables to the rear side of the F-type barrel connectors. On the front side, connect the patch cables leading to your end devices or distribution equipment. Ensure that all connections are tightened sufficiently to maintain a secure electrical contact, but avoid over-tightening to prevent damage to the connector threads.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your rack cabinet supports 19-inch equipment
• Ensure you have sufficient 1U of vertical space available
• Check that your existing coaxial cables are terminated with standard F-type male connectors
• Confirm the total number of required ports for your current and future expansion needs

Usage recommendations

For optimal signal performance, ensure that all coaxial cables are properly routed and supported to prevent strain on the F-type connectors. Regularly inspect connections to ensure they remain tight and free of dust or debris.
