Product Features
Technical Overview
This patch panel supports CAT6A shielded cabling standards, maintaining signal integrity for high-speed network applications up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet. The 24 RJ-45 ports are arranged in a single row configuration optimized for standard rack installations.
The panel's 1U height and 19-inch width make it compatible with standard EIA-310 rack systems. The rear cable management bar included in the package helps organize and secure incoming cable runs, reducing clutter and improving airflow in rack environments.
This section brings together practical product details such as Total Number of Ports, Number of Network (RJ-45) Ports, Product Material, Form Factor, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
Key Product Advantages
This patch panel combines robust construction with practical design features that streamline network infrastructure management. The shielded design provides enhanced protection against electromagnetic interference, crucial for maintaining signal quality in dense network environments.
Simplified Installation
The feed-through design eliminates the need for punch-down tools or specialized termination equipment. Network technicians can simply route cables through the rear and connect patch cables directly to the front ports.
- No punch-down tools required
- Direct patch cable connection
- Reduced installation time
Compliance Ready
Manufactured in Taiwan with TAA compliance, this patch panel meets government procurement requirements. The RoHS compliance ensures environmentally responsible manufacturing without hazardous substances.
- TAA compliant for government contracts
- RoHS environmental compliance
- Taiwan country of origin
Deployment / Use Cases
The C6AFP70S-24 patch panel is ideal for organizations requiring organized, high-density network connectivity in rack-mounted environments. Its design supports both new installations and infrastructure upgrades where cable management and accessibility are priorities.
Common deployment scenarios include data center server racks where multiple devices require Ethernet connectivity, network operation centers monitoring critical infrastructure, and enterprise wiring closets serving office floors or building segments.
Data Center Racks
Provides centralized termination for server and storage network connections in 1U of rack space, optimizing density while maintaining accessibility for cable changes and troubleshooting.
Network Infrastructure Upgrades
Facilitates migration to CAT6A cabling standards while maintaining existing rack footprint, allowing organizations to upgrade network performance without redesigning physical infrastructure.
Physical Profile
The patch panel features a compact 1U profile that maximizes rack space utilization while providing full 24-port functionality. The 4.5-inch depth accommodates standard patch cables without excessive bending, and the included rear cable management bar helps maintain proper bend radius for installed cabling.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 1.75" (44.45 mm), 19", 4.50" (114.30 mm), 2.02 lb (916.26 g). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.
