Patch Panel 24‑port Cat6A Synergy21 S216320S216382, 19", 1U, with Keystone slim-line and cable clamp, black

Patch Panel 24‑port Cat6A Synergy21 S216320S216382, 19", 1U, with Keystone slim-line and cable clamp, black is a 24‑port patch panel designed for installation in 19‑inch racks occupying 1U of rack space. It provides slim‑line Keystone ports that accept Cat6A twisted‑pair modules and includes an integrated cable clamp to secure and organise cable bundles. The panel is intended for structured cabling systems and supports high‑speed 10GbE connections over Cat6A cabling in server rooms, data centres and enterprise network closets.

Advantages

The patch panel offers a compact 1U form factor with 24 slim‑line Keystone ports for flexible port population and easy module replacement. Its integrated cable clamp improves cable management and strain relief at the panel, helping maintain connector performance and reducing stress on terminations. The black finish and standard 19" mounting make it compatible with commonly used rack equipment and typical network installation workflows.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) Cat6A network backbones
• Structured cabling in data centres, server rooms and wiring closets
• Installations requiring modular Keystone jacks and easy port reconfiguration
• Environments where cable management and strain relief at the patch panel are needed

When it may not be suitable

This 24‑port Cat6A patch panel is intended for use with Keystone style Cat6A jacks and may not be suitable where preloaded or fixed RJ45 ports are required. It is designed for 19" rack mounting in a 1U space and therefore is not a match for wall‑mount or non‑rack installations without appropriate adaptors or enclosures.

Key specifications

• Port count: 24 Keystone slim‑line ports
• Category: Cat6A support for twisted‑pair cabling
• Form factor: 19" rack, 1U height
• Cable management: integrated cable clamp for strain relief
• Colour: black
• Suitable for 10GbE applications over Cat6A cabling

How to use

Install the panel into a standard 19" rack occupying a single U of space. Populate the slim‑line Keystone ports with compatible Cat6A Keystone jacks according to the network design and punch down each jack per the jack manufacturer’s wiring scheme (T568A/T568B). Route patch cords to the front ports and secure horizontal or vertical cable bundles to the integrated cable clamp at the rear to provide strain relief and maintain orderly cable runs. Test each connection after installation to verify continuity and performance up to Cat6A/10GbE specifications.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm that you will use Keystone‑style Cat6A jacks rather than preloaded RJ45 ports
• Ensure available rack space is 19" and 1U high for proper mounting
• Check that the panel’s black finish and dimensions fit your rack layout and cable management plan

Usage recommendations

Use certified Cat6A Keystone jacks and maintain correct pair untwisting limits at termination. Secure cables to the integrated clamp and combine the panel with structured cable management (horizontal managers, vertical managers) to preserve performance and ease future changes.
