TKH CCAS-PA6-24UTP-O 19-inch 1U 24-Port Cat.6 UTP Patch Panel with Cable Management Shelf

The TKH CCAS-PA6-24UTP-O is a professional-grade 19-inch 1U rack-mount patch panel designed to provide reliable connectivity for Category 6 UTP networking environments. Featuring 24 RJ45 ports, this unit is engineered to support high-speed data transmission while maintaining a clean and organized server rack infrastructure. The inclusion of an integrated cable management shelf allows for efficient routing and strain relief, ensuring that cables remain secure and orderly within data centers or office network cabinets.

Advantages

This patch panel offers a robust construction that ensures long-term durability in demanding network environments. The integrated cable management shelf significantly simplifies the installation process by providing a dedicated space to support cable weight, which reduces stress on the RJ45 connections. Its standard 1U height makes it an ideal choice for space-constrained server racks, allowing for high-density port configurations without compromising on accessibility or performance. The black finish provides a professional aesthetic that integrates seamlessly into standard networking equipment setups.

Suitable for

• Data center network infrastructure
• Office local area network (LAN) installations
• Server room cable management
• High-density Ethernet connectivity projects

When it may not be suitable

This patch panel is designed specifically for unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cabling and is not suitable for environments requiring shielded (STP/FTP) connections to prevent electromagnetic interference. It is also not intended for wall-mount applications unless installed within a compatible 19-inch rack or enclosure.

Key specifications

• Form factor: 19-inch rack-mount
• Height: 1U
• Port count: 24 RJ45 ports
• Category: Cat.6
• Shielding: UTP (Unshielded)
• Features: Integrated cable management shelf
• Color: Black

How to use

To install the patch panel, mount it into the front rails of your 19-inch server rack using standard rack screws. Once secured, terminate your Cat.6 UTP cables into the rear of the panel according to the T568A or T568B wiring standards. Use the integrated cable management shelf to bundle and secure the incoming cables, ensuring they are properly supported to prevent sagging. Finally, connect your patch cords to the front RJ45 ports to complete the link to your active networking equipment.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure your rack supports 19-inch equipment with 1U of available space.
• Verify that your network infrastructure utilizes UTP cabling.
• Check the depth of your rack to ensure the cable management shelf does not obstruct other components.

Usage recommendations

For optimal network performance, always maintain proper cable bend radii and avoid over-tightening cable ties when using the integrated management shelf.
