Product Features
Technical Overview
This patch panel features 24 shielded RJ-45 ports that support high-speed Ethernet connections up to Cat6A specifications. The shielded design helps minimize electromagnetic interference, which is particularly valuable in dense rack environments where multiple devices operate in close proximity.
The panel includes 24 RJ-11 ports for telephone connections, providing flexibility for voice-over-IP deployments or traditional telephone systems. This dual functionality supports converged network environments where data and voice services share infrastructure.
Key Product Advantages
The TC-P24C6 delivers reliable performance through its shielded design, which protects against crosstalk and electromagnetic interference in high-density installations. This ensures stable network connections even in challenging electrical environments.
Backward Compatibility
Supports Cat5e, Cat6, and Cat6A cabling, allowing seamless integration with existing infrastructure and future upgrades without requiring complete rewiring.
- Mixed cable environments
- Gradual network upgrades
- Infrastructure flexibility
Dense Port Configuration
Provides 24 ports in a single 1U rack space, maximizing rack utilization while maintaining organized cable management for both data and voice connections.
- Space-efficient design
- Dual RJ-45/RJ-11 ports
- Clean cable organization
Deployment / Use Cases
This patch panel is ideal for data center installations, server rooms, and network closets where organized cable termination and management are essential. The shielded construction makes it particularly suitable for environments with potential electromagnetic interference from nearby equipment.
The dual RJ-45 and RJ-11 port configuration supports converged network deployments where data and voice services share the same physical infrastructure. This is valuable for VoIP implementations, office networks, and educational facilities requiring both Ethernet and telephone connections.
Data Center Rack Integration
Fits standard 19" racks with 1U height, providing high-density port access while maintaining proper cable management and airflow in server environments.
Office Network Infrastructure
Supports structured cabling systems in commercial buildings, with backward compatibility allowing gradual upgrades from Cat5e to higher-performance cabling standards.
Physical Profile
The patch panel measures 3" (76.20 mm) in height (1U), 8" (203.20 mm) in width, and 10" (254 mm) in depth, with a weight of approximately 2.64 lb (1197.48 g). This compact form factor maximizes rack space utilization while providing sufficient depth for proper cable bending radius and termination work.
