The panel comes in a black finish and features an integrated cable management shelf with handles to support stable assembly and orderly cable routing.

Advantages

The patch panel offers 48 Cat5e RJ-45 ports in a compact 1U form factor, enabling high-density terminations in standard racks. IDC/LSA connectors simplify and accelerate cable termination without soldering. An attached cable management shelf with handles improves cable organization and helps maintain stable mounting and neat routing of patch cords and horizontal cables.

Suitable for

• Primary and secondary distribution points in Ethernet networks
• 19" rack cabinets and server rooms requiring Cat5e terminations

How to use

Mount the panel in a standard 19" rack using the front mounting holes. Terminate individual Cat5e twisted-pair cables onto the IDC/LSA blocks according to T568A or T568B wiring schemes, then verify connections with appropriate network testers. Route patched cables along the integrated cable management shelf and secure them using the handles and standard cable ties to maintain strain relief and orderly layout.

Usage recommendations

For reliable performance, use Cat5e-compliant cables and perform continuity and pair-splitting tests after termination. Maintain service loops and avoid tight bends; do not exceed the manufacturer's recommended bend radius. In high-density or high-performance installations, consider Cat6/6a alternatives if higher bandwidth or future-proofing is required.
