Patch Panel 24-port Cat6A, Synergy21 S216336V4/S216310, 19" 1U, with cable clamp, light gray

The Synergy21 Patch Panel 24-port Cat6A is a 19-inch, 1U rack-mounted panel engineered to terminate and organize up to 24 Ethernet runs. It accepts large keystone modules and delivers Cat6A performance suitable for high-speed network environments. The unit includes an integrated cable clamp to secure cabling and support structured cabling installations in data centers, server rooms and telecommunications cabinets.

Advantages

This patch panel provides a compact, standardized 1U footprint for consistent rack deployment and straightforward cable routing. Support for Cat6A-rated keystone modules enables 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance when paired with compatible cabling and connectors. The integrated cable clamp reduces strain on terminations and helps maintain reliable connections over time. The light gray finish offers a neutral appearance that blends into most rack environments.

Suitable for

• Data centers and server rooms requiring organized 24‑port patching
• Structured cabling installations for office networks and telecom closets
• Upgrades to Cat6A infrastructure to support 10 Gbps links
• Rack-mounted network distribution in 19" cabinets using a 1U space

When it may not be suitable

This panel is designed specifically for keystone-style RJ45 modules and is not compatible with fixed, non-keystone connector types. It occupies a single 1U rack unit, so installations with limited vertical space or those that require higher port density per U may need alternative multi-row or high-density panels.

Key specifications

• Rack size: 19-inch, 1U
• Number of ports: 24 RJ45 keystone positions
• Cable category support: Cat6A performance when used with Cat6A cabling and keystone jacks
• Mounting: Front-facing keystone modules with rear cable management provision
• Integrated features: Built-in cable clamp for strain relief
• Color: Light gray

How to use

Install the patch panel into a standard 19" rack occupying one U of space and secure it with appropriate rack screws. Snap compatible keystone Cat6A jacks into the front of each port position. Terminate individual cables at the rear side of the panel according to the keystone jack manufacturer’s wiring diagram, then fasten the integrated cable clamp to relieve strain on the terminations. Label ports as required to maintain clear network documentation and route patch cords from active equipment to the front-facing ports.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify compatibility of keystone Cat6A jacks you plan to use with large keystone opening dimensions.
• Confirm available rack space (1U) and desired port density per rack unit.
• Ensure cabling and connectors are Cat6A-rated to achieve specified performance.
• Check that the integrated cable clamp meets your cable management and strain-relief needs.

Usage recommendations

For optimal Cat6A performance, use shielded or unshielded Cat6A cabling and quality keystone jacks, maintain appropriate cable bend radius, and secure cables with the provided clamp to prevent movement and strain on terminations.
