Patch Panel 6xTP Synergy21 S216343/S216364, CAT6A, includes Slim-line/Short 3P Keystone, Surface-mount ABS, White

The Synergy21 Patch Panel 6xTP (S216343/S216364) is a surface-mount patch panel designed for structured Ethernet installations that require CAT6A performance. Housed in a white ABS enclosure, it provides six twisted-pair ports and is supplied with Slim-line/Short 3P keystone jacks. The unit is intended for wall or surface mounting and is suitable for small server rooms, branch offices and local network distribution points where reliable high-speed connections are required.

Advantages

This patch panel delivers CAT6A-rated performance in a compact surface-mount form factor. Inclusion of Slim-line/Short 3P keystone jacks simplifies deployment and reduces the need to purchase separate jacks. The ABS enclosure provides a clean aesthetic for visible installations and offers a practical, durable housing for everyday network use. The six-port configuration suits small cabling closets or localized aggregation points without occupying rack space.

Suitable for

• Small server rooms and telecommunications cupboards
• Office network points and local area network distribution
• Surface-mounted installations on walls or furniture
• CAT6A endpoints requiring shielded or unshielded high-speed links

When it may not be suitable

This surface-mount six-port panel is not intended for large data centre racks or high-density patching environments where 19-inch rack-mount panels are required. It may not meet installation needs where integrated cable management, large port counts or specialized rack mounting are necessary.

Key specifications

• Port count: 6 twisted-pair ports
• Performance category: CAT6A
• Supplied keystone type: Slim-line/Short 3P keystone jacks
• Enclosure material: ABS plastic
• Mounting type: Surface-mount (wall/furniture)
• Colour: White

How to use

Install the panel on a suitable flat surface using appropriate fasteners for the wall or furniture material. Terminate incoming copper cabling to the supplied Slim-line/Short 3P keystone jacks following standard CAT6A termination practices and wiring schemes (T568A or T568B as required). Snap the keystone jacks into the panel, route patch cords to network equipment and label ports for identification. Ensure proper cable bends and maintain separation from electrical cabling to preserve performance.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that CAT6A performance meets your bandwidth and distance requirements
• Check mounting location and available space for a surface-mounted enclosure
• Confirm compatibility of the supplied Slim-line/Short 3P keystone jacks with your connectors and patch cords
• Consider whether higher port density or rack-mount panels are required for future expansion

Usage recommendations

Use quality CAT6A-rated patch cords and maintain proper cable management to achieve the expected performance. For installations requiring many ports or centralised rack mounting, evaluate 19-inch rack panels as an alternative.
