WALLMOUNT CAT5E UNIVERSAL PATCH PANEL (12- OR 24-PORT)
4
2. Introduction
2.1 Overview
The Wallmount CAT5e Universal Patch Panels are designed to link ports together in small- to medium-sized
cross-connect applications where space is limited. For example, the patch panel is ideal for cluttered
telecommunication closets where relay racks aren’t practical. Because the panel mounts directly on the wall, no
extra rack equipment is needed. See Figures 2 and 3 for illustrations of the 12- and 24-port models.
The panel supports all applications operating on bandwidths up to 100 MHz, such as 100BASE-TX and Gigabit
Ethernet. The panel exceeds all Category 5e transmission requirements for NEXT, attenuation, and return loss.
2.2 Features
• The panel’s simple one-piece design (plus cover) guarantees a clean installation, even in small closets.
• Removable cover protects terminations.
• Total front access to the 110 clips and modular jacks (separate fields for terminating and cross-connecting)
cuts installation time and labor costs.
• The patch panel is clearly labeled with jack and block identification numbers.
• Fully enclosed PC board reduces radio-frequency interference.
• Built-in cable management, featuring large hooks and rotating cable tie buttons, keeps your cable neat and
organized, and helps technicians comply with Category 5e installation practices.
• 100% computer tested means the panel ensures reliable Category 5e point-to-point continuity.
• Keyhole mounting slots for easier installation.
• Includes cable ties to help support cable management.
