For connections at the front of the bay, you'll need
multiple, short patch cables in either balanced 1/4"
phone or unbalanced 1/4" phone. Hosa offers color-
coded patch-bay cable sets of eight shielded cables
each. They are available terminated in unbalanced
1/4" phone (CPP-830, CPP-845, CPP-890) and
balanced 1/4" phone (CSS-845 and CSS-890), in a
variety of convenient lengths specifically for use with
professional patch bays. The dealer from whom you
purchased your PHB-265 can help you find an
appropriate set of patch-bay cables.

Labelling
By now, you're probably aware of the importance of
labelling all of your patch-bay connections. With so
may dozens of patch points (especially when more
than one patch bay is employed), you'll never keep
track of them all without labelling. The white areas
above and below the front-panel jacks are available
for labelling each jack. Make sure to use a "wipe-off"
marker, like the ones used on white presentations
boards, or get a "grease" pencil from an art supply
store. DON'T use permanent markers. If you do,
and then decide later to reconfigure the bay, you'll be
stuck with your old labels!
