Patch panel slim wirewin TKS PANEL 24 BLACK — 24‑port keystone, black, unpopulated

Wirewin TKS PANEL 24 BLACK is a 24‑port keystone patch panel with a slim black metal housing, designed for mounting standard keystone modules to organise Ethernet, voice and data cabling within 19" racks and cabinets. The panel is unpopulated (empty), allowing flexible selection and placement of keystone connectors, and is suitable for structured cabling installations in offices, server rooms and telecom closets. The product is CE certified and RoHS compliant.

Advantages

The patch panel provides a compact, space-saving 1U solution for terminating and patching network lines. Its slim profile and black finish enable discreet integration into modern rack environments while maintaining compatibility with standard keystone modules. Being unpopulated, the panel permits customised port configuration and future upgrades without the need to replace the panel itself.

Suitable for

• Organising Ethernet, voice and data connections in 19" racks and network cabinets
• Structured cabling installations in small and medium offices
• Server rooms and telecom rooms requiring modular patching points
• Projects where custom keystone modules (RJ45, HDMI, USB, etc.) are chosen separately

When it may not be suitable

This unpopulated keystone panel does not include keystone jacks, patch cords or labeling inserts; additional components must be purchased separately to create a complete patching solution. For installations that require fully assembled panels or pre-terminated factory-fitted ports, a populated patch panel or a different pre-configured product may be more appropriate.

Key specifications

• Number of ports: 24 (keystone)
• Form factor: 1U, slim panel for 19" racks
• Finish: black metal housing
• Module type: unpopulated keystone openings (compatible with standard keystone modules)
• Compliance: CE marked, RoHS compliant

How to use

Mount the panel into a standard 19" rack or cabinet using appropriate mounting screws and spacing for a 1U device. Insert chosen keystone modules into the keystone openings from the front until they snap into place. Terminate individual cables to the rear of each keystone module following the connector manufacturer's wiring scheme, then secure and label each port as required. Use patch cords to connect the front ports to switches, patch panels or active equipment.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm compatibility of your preferred keystone modules (size and snap-in type) with the panel openings
• Plan the number and types of keystone inserts required (RJ45, voice, multimedia, etc.)
• Allocate rack space (1U) and ensure mounting hardware and screws are available
• Ensure compliance with local installation standards for structured cabling

Usage recommendations

For neat, long-term installations, use compatible keystone jacks from the same category family (e.g., Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6A) and clearly label each port. Maintain professional cable management at the rear of the panel and avoid excessive bending of terminated cables to preserve signal integrity.
