Equip patch panel 12x RJ45 Cat6 FTP desktop ISO/IEC light gray content_copy

The Equip Desktop Patch Panel with manufacturer number 227362 is a compact network distribution unit for use in offices, server rooms, or during installation of network infrastructures. It features 12 shielded RJ-45 connectors and is designed for use with Cat6 cables. The unit is manufactured in a metallic housing that includes an integrated cable management system to ensure proper cable routing and strain relief. The device is light grey (RAL 7035), allowing it to blend seamlessly into typical IT environments.

Applications
This patch panel is designed for use in networks complying with IEEE 802.3 standards (e.g. 10Base-T, 100Base-T, 1000Base-T) and IEEE 802.5 standards (e.g. 16 MB, ISDN, TPDDI, ATM). It is suitable for both freestanding and wall-mounted installation. The integrated cable management enables structured cabling and reduces mechanical stress on cables, extending the lifespan of connections. The unit is particularly suitable for small to medium-sized networks where clear and organized cabling is required.

Functions and Features in Detail
The device features 12 RJ-45 ports with gold-plated contacts. This plating ensures a reliable electrical connection and minimizes contact resistance. The connectors are shielded to reduce electromagnetic interference and maintain signal quality. The IDC connection (Insulation Displacement Connector) is compatible with LSA and 110 standard cabling, enabling flexible use with various installation standards. Each port is numbered to facilitate cable identification.

Technology Explained Simply
The unit complies with ISO/IEC 11801 (Class E), EN50173, and ANSI/TIA/EIA 568 standards, which govern the quality and performance of network cables and components. These certifications guarantee high signal integrity and bandwidth up to 250 MHz, which is required for Cat6 networks. Electrical properties include an insulation resistance of at least 1000 MΩ, a contact resistance of maximum 100 mΩ, and a current rating of 1.5 Ampere. The mechanical durability of the IDC connection is rated for at least 200 insertion cycles, while the RJ-45 connectors withstand 750 insertion and extraction cycles.

Compatibility and Accessories
The patch panel is specifically designed for use with Cat6 S/FTP patch cables to fully utilize the cable technology’s performance characteristics. The use of Equip patch cables is recommended to ensure optimal signal transmission. The unit is designed for connection to network devices such as switches, routers, or end devices equipped with RJ-45 connectors. The integrated cable management supports cables of various diameters and enables organized routing.

Installation and Mounting
The unit can be installed either freestanding or wall-mounted. Dimensions are 212 mm (height) × 44 mm (width) × 129 mm (depth), allowing for compact placement. Mounting is achieved via integrated mounting brackets, ensuring secure and stable installation. The cable management on the rear side facilitates cable routing and reduces strain on cables.

Operational Advantages
Using the Equip Patch Panel provides structured and organized network cabling, simplifying maintenance and troubleshooting. The shielded connectors and gold-plated contacts ensure reliable and long-lasting connections. Certification to international standards guarantees compatibility with modern network standards and compliance with quality requirements. The integrated cable management reduces the risk of cable damage due to tension and improves overall installation stability.
