Patch Panel 24‑port TP Cat6A with Keystone inserts, 19" 1U, Synergy21 S216336V31/S216310, light gray

The Patch Panel 24‑port TP Cat6A with Keystone inserts is a 19" 1U rack‑mount panel designed for structured copper cabling in datacenters, server rooms and network cabinets. It supports Cat6A twisted‑pair connections for high‑speed 10G Ethernet and is supplied with oversized keystone inserts to accept a variety of modular jacks. The light gray metal housing and labeled ports provide an organized front‑facing connection area while the 1U height keeps the installation compact.

Advantages

This patch panel offers modular, flexible connectivity thanks to its keystone insert design, allowing straightforward installation and replacement of individual jacks without changing the entire panel. The Cat6A rating ensures performance for up to 10G Ethernet over twisted pair cabling, suitable for modern network loads. Rack‑mount 19" 1U form factor with clear port labeling simplifies cable management and helps maintain an organized network infrastructure.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• 10G Ethernet connections in datacenters and server rooms
• Structured cabling installations in offices and network cabinets
• Modular patching where individual jacks need to be replaced or upgraded
• Consolidating multiple copper network runs into a single rack unit

When it may not be suitable

This panel is intended for copper twisted‑pair networks and Cat6A performance; it is not suitable for direct fiber terminations or for network environments that require integrated PoE management or active switching. For installations that require shielded ports, look for panels specifically specified for shielded connectors and cabling.

Key specifications

• Number of ports: 24
• Cabling standard: Category 6A (Cat6A) for twisted‑pair copper
• Form factor: 19" 1U rack‑mount, depth 94 mm
• Front: keystone inserts (oversized) for modular jack mounting
• Color: light gray
• Designed for: up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet over copper

How to use

Install the patch panel in a standard 19" rack occupying 1U height. Mount compatible keystone modular jacks into the oversized inserts as required for your cabling scheme. Terminate the horizontal or backbone copper cabling to the rear of each keystone jack according to the jack manufacturer’s wiring diagram and the selected wiring standard (T568A/B). Route and secure patch cords from active equipment to the front ports, and label each connection to match your documentation. Follow standard rack and cable management practices to avoid excessive bend radii and to maintain signal performance.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm compatibility of keystone jacks and modular connectors with oversized inserts
• Verify that Cat6A performance meets current and near‑term bandwidth requirements
• Check rack depth and available 1U space in the intended cabinet or rack
• Ensure you have appropriate cable management and patch cords for 10G links

Usage recommendations

Use certified Cat6A jacks and cabling, follow the recommended wiring standard, and maintain proper cable bend radius and separation from power sources to achieve reliable 10G performance. Label both ends of each connection and plan patching to minimize cross‑panel congestion.
